Urijah Faber furious about Josh Emmett’s ‘bullsh*t’ treatment at UFC 276: ‘Dana, I hope you see this’

LAS VEGAS – Urijah Faber is “super disappointed” about the way Josh Emmett was treated at UFC 276 on Saturday.

Emmett (18-2 MMA, 9-2 UFC), who has a strong case to be the next challenger to Alexander Volkanovski’s featherweight title, traveled to Las Vegas so he could witness the trilogy fight with Max Holloway at T-Mobile Arena.

Faber is Emmett’s coach at Team Alpha Male and also is engrained with VaynerSports, which also serves as Emmett’s management team. The expectation was Emmett would be cageside when Volkanovski (25-1 MMA, 12-0 UFC) defeated Holloway (23-7 MMA, 19-7 UFC) by unanimous decision to retain the title, and he would get some spotlight on the broadcast before or during the fight, or even some rub on the post-fight show.
