Konflikten och ordkriget mellan legendaren Randy Couture och UFC:s vd Dana White pågick under lång tid i det offentliga ljuset. Nu menar Couture att hans konflikt med White även påverkat hans son till den grad att Ryan Couture (6-3) aldrig fick en schysst chans i UFC.
– No I don’t think he got a fair shake. I don’t think that any 7-0 fighter was being handled appropriately or properly in putting him in with a Ross Pearson who has 30 plus mixed martial arts fights. That’s not a real fair match up on the experience side of things. Was Ryan capable, technically and tactically of winning that fight? I think he proved that. He went out and won the first round, but Ross is a very, very experienced fighter. He stuck to his guns, he knew where he needed to be and he found a way to win and I think that was Dana poking at me, trying to get back at me for signing a deal with Spike and again trying to villainies me, not allowing me to corner my son, to be involved with my son when he made the transition to the biggest fight of his life; and I think that showed after the Pearson fight his confidence was in the toilet, and that second kid, he was more than capable of beating, but I think coming off the Pearson fight it was tough fight for him. It didn’t go well, and again, I wasn’t allowed to be there to do the things that I’ve been doing for him in every other fight that he had up to that point and that all falls on Dana’s shoulders. I think that’s where he really went and stepped over the line. You start messing with somebody’s family and that would be like me messing with his sons and he’s got a couple sons so, that puts it in perspective but that’s how Dana operates. I know Dana well, sa Randy Couture till Submission Radio.
Ryan Couture gjorde två matcher för UFC som båda slutade med förlust. Första matchen var mot Ross Pearson när UFC besökte Stockholm förra året och den andra och sista var mot Al Iaquinta på UFC 164 i augusti förra året.
