\"Wanderlei<\/a><\/p>\n

Every time a fight ends in a dramatic way or an odd way there are conspiracy theorist out there that point to the fight being fixed. Well, according to Wanderlei Silva, they might not be wrong.<\/p>\n

Silva has had a rocky relationship with the UFC for a while now, to say the least. He regularly bashes them and president Dana White on social media, but this time he’s dropped a pretty big claim.<\/p>\n

Silva took to his Facebook<\/a>\u00a0to respond to the UFC firing cutman Jacob ‘Stitch’ Duran and well, check it out!<\/p>\n

\u201cThey fired him. That\u2019s right. They fired \u2018Stitch\u2019 for standing against this theft being perpetrated on the athletes. So I wonder, \u2018why don\u2019t they fire me?\u2019 I already said I do not want to, nor will I work any more for to this promotion. And they won\u2019t dismiss me. That\u2019s what happens to those who speak the truth in this company; they\u2019re driven out. They have no respect for anyone. I\u2019ve made it very clear to you all that I will never again fight for this promotion, the U.F. Circus. Fixed fights \u2013 and I can prove it! I haven\u2019t yet dropped the bomb. I haven\u2019t said everything I know!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cEither you do what they tell you, or you\u2019re fired,\u201d Silva wrote. \u201cI won\u2019t give up until they free the athletes. This promoter is killing our sport. There are fighters going back to work to support their families because they can\u2019t live from the sport alone. They\u2019re very poorly paid. We are getting organized and soon I\u2019ll have news for my brothers in the ring. This will not stand! Some have tried to buy me, but I am not, nor have I ever been for sale. And I will fight to the end, to unmask these promoters, who are deceiving the public, cheating, and taking the dignity and the honor from our sport! This is turning a pro-wrestling show with fixed fights. We have to stop these guys because that\u2019s the end of the line for us!\u201d<\/em>
