LAS VEGAS – Tresean Gore wants to make those around him proud. That’s why he apologized after he cussed at a UFC Fight Night 213 news conference Wednesday.
“F*ck the naysayers,” Gore told MMA Junkie and other reporters. “Excuse my language. I shouldn’t be cussing. I don’t want my son to see this and copy what I’m saying. But forget the naysayers, man.”
Being a good example is why Gore (3-2 MMA, 0-2 UFC) broke down in tears at multiple points during his interview. Gore is a “TUF 29” runner-up who has gone 0-2 in the UFC thus far with one decision defeat and one knockout loss. He said his family cried after his losses and he doesn’t want to repeat that if he can help it.
