Randy Couture disgusted with camera rolling in Aldo's locker room

[DyslexicDave]

where was the camera in Ronda's locker room after the Holm fight?

 

[bigbangspiritbomb]

They didn't show Ronda or Cain after losing that's for damn sure

Great point. The cash cows are protected. I guarantee RR was emotional. She like every other fighter deserved respect and solitude after a loss.

 

[hasar]

We should demand Ronda's backroom video after the loss.

"Well, we can probably go down the list of fighters that have not been shown or been kind of dumped on by the promotion. I don't think at the end of the day the promotion cares that much. I don't think they had Jose Aldo's best interests at heart there. Did they have Georges St-Pierre's best interest at heart? And that was after a victory, but because he wanted to take a hiatus, all the things that were said and done with regard to Georges -- I certainly might fall into that category if I wanted to start talking about that -- but there's certainly been other fighters that, you know, they [UFC] do what they think is best for them at the end of the day. Here's my question. Where were his handlers? Where were his trainers? Those are the guys -- and having been in that situation after the Chuck Liddell fight, after retiring in the third Chuck Liddell fight, my guys weren't letting those [camera] guys in. You know, that was our space. They wanted me to have that space. And I remember specifically, Nate Quarry hollering at the camera men and telling him, ‘look get outta here' and not letting them in the room."

I Agree, it's sad to think a person thought of publishing that tape. Shitty human beings, business or not.

It was live footage and there were cameras in both locker rooms, so its not like UFC specifically set it up in Aldo's locker room after the loss to embarrass him. You could also watch Conor and his team celebrate in theirs. I believe that there were locker room cameras for UFC 189 too. Also, I'm unsure if the UFC actually published it, as far as I recall you could only access the live stream of the locker room cams if you had the link and I don't think that they published it on their channel or anything.

Talk about missing the point...

Like I said, could have been for a number of reasons.

I can't find the Aldo vid but they published Mendes' one when he lost to Conor:

You don't see him come back into the room though.

 

[Fraz]

Lost all respect for cameras.

 

[taebo99]

That video was before fight - Aldo did not want to fight Conor

 

[Track Jipper]

tangentially, Ryan Couture's midsection looks like it's seen some shit

Jesus, that thousand yard stare, man. Although, it looks more gloomy than anything. It probably wishes it could look more like its tummy daddy. Randy's stomach probably looks happier.

That explains a lot

 

[Diggem]

They should have followed Ronda everywhere and into the locker room right after her getting KTFO and make a big spectacle of it. She would have deserved it more.

 

[sprucelees]

depends on how they show it

 

[Toco]

yeah, they shouldnt have recorded the post fight

 

[Toco]

If I were in a main event spot on a card and had one of those cameras in my locker room I'd have someone cover up the lense with shaving cream or something. I'd like to see Ronda's post fight locker room footage. Oh that's right, there is none. I wonder why. Fuck the UFC. I hope for the day they sell the company.

this

not only that but these cameras might show something

these guys might be trianing something special and these cameras can catch these things

That's not the point. The point is: why should they show Aldo's locker room after the fight? They didn't do it with Ronda or Cain. What's up with the double standard?

 

[derekcrankshaft]

Anderson Aldo has been disrespected and punked by the UFC, for criticising them, making minimal effort to promote and for......not being 'the goose that lays golden $$$'!

 

[derekcrankshaft]

It's sports entertainment guys, always remember that (it's like a pantomime/soap opera, with the occasional cage fight thrown in)

 

[Pierce Founding]

I was disgusted that they showed that. Plain disrespectful.

 

[KantoTerror]

I have no issue with it. I think it's cool to get an inside look but if a fighter is refusing then fair enough.

Problem is UFC is picking & choosing who...Didn't do it to Ronda. Aldo isn't a UFC dog and will never be...it's their way of payback to him...Did they do it to Chris Weidman? but it's really no secret what your take is about all this when it comes to Zuffa...
