Pretty funny..


"im not trying to put on exciting fights" -HAHA never said

What is this BJPENN.COM

I didn't think the UG was the type of place that put words in fighters mouths... a dominant performance can be just as exciting... and that is what I'm getting at,

very disappointed in the thread title

please delete

I hold my head high because i like to think i come out to make every one of my fights exciting

David M -
Kirik - How about - Iaquinta aims to dominate not win performance bonuses? Does that more accurately capture it?

He knows exactly what he is doing when he makes these thread titles. I'm glad Al called him out on it.

Anyone know how to get in touch with Al? I'd love to introduce myself and discuss getting him to partake in some discussion here.

Someone PM him on the UG and invite him over. Tell him he won't be misquoted to induce thread clicks over here.

Did he? Or is Al mistaken over what he said in an interview? Kirik copied what another article from another site, which had that quote verbatim. You can say that is hack journalism, but every news outlet does it, even ones which produce their own content as well. Kirik has plenty of faults and the UG blog at times is a disgrace, but this is hardly his fault, not to mention when called out he immediately made attempts to fix the problem. .

Him fixing it shows it was an issue. He used 1 piece of the quote and the part he chose was "I'm not trying to put on exciting fights" as the headline.... The fucking headline. The whole quote was about how he's trying to dominate and work his way up.

Kirik knew what he was doing and even though the article was copied, the headline wasn't. That was all him.

He also added a paragraph at the end that said Al has more pressure to win now that he doesn't plan on entertaining the fans.

It was complete bullshit that it was published. He tried to make Al look bad through a clickbait headline and he got called out for it.

That is a good point. After re-reading the full comments I can see how he took them out of context which I didn't pick up when I initially skimmed it.
