Josh Emmett is reacting after Urijah Faber sounded off on Dana White and the UFC.<\/p>\n

Emmett’s coach, Urijah Faber was unhappy the treatment his fighter received during International Fight Week, saying to ‘MMA Junkie<\/a>‘:<\/p>\n

\u201cHe had a really bad experience. He was put way back in the seating, not even with the rest of the guys and had to find his way by himself upstairs because they have peons working security that are getting paid minimum wage that are like, \u2018Hey, you can\u2019t come this way.\u2019 He\u2019s not a confrontational guy unless you\u2019re paying him to beat someone up. He was really upset that there wasn\u2019t more made of the fact that he\u2019s the guy in line. I\u2019m going to talk to Dana (White) about it and talk to Hunter (Campbell) and let them know that it\u2019s really bullsh*t.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Continuing Faber said he hopes Dana White see’s his comments and acts on them:<\/p>\n

\u201c(We got) ghosted<\/a>. It\u2019s really sad and his wife was livid, he was livid and he was just like, \u2018What do I have to do to get a little bit of respect?\u2019 So Dana, I hope you see this and understand that it\u2019s Josh\u2019s time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

In response, Josh Emmett (18-2 MMA) spoke about his coach’s comments saying he was just looking out for the him:<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not going to sit here and \u2013 Urijah knew what was going on. I was never going to say anything and I saw that thing last night and everyone was tagging me, then I see the interview. He\u2019s just looking out for me. Of course, he was pissed. They don\u2019t need to reach out to me. They don\u2019t need to do anything. I was kind of pissed because I wanted to sit cageside and watch that fight close then like \u2013 I was on the floor then I was in the very back. Then a bunch of other things went on. It was just like a snowball effect I kept getting more pissed.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

It is true that Josh Emmett (18-2 MMA) believes he\u2019s the rightful No. 1 contender in the featherweight division after Alexander Volkanovski (25-1 MMA) defeated Max Holloway (23-7 MMA) in their trilogy bout last Saturday at UFC 276.<\/p>\n

Emmett, is on a five fight winning streak, his latest victory coming against Calvin Kattar (23-6 MMA) in June of this year.<\/p>\n

In speaking with ‘MMA Junkie Radio’ Emmett confirmed he wants a shot at Volkanovski:<\/p>\n

\u201cI know he\u2019s been wanting to fight in Australia. He gets to call the shots. They already know my answer. It would be an honor to fight Volkanovski. He is the best in the featherweight division and he is one of the pound-for-pound best, and that\u2019s why I want to fight him. Because he\u2019s the best, and I think I\u2019m the best. There\u2019s only one way to find out.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Do you agree with Urijah Faber that Dana White and the UFC are disrespecting his fighter?<\/p>\n

Would you like to see Emmett vs Volkanovski next?<\/p>\n
