There was a brief off-camera disturbance at the UFC 150 post-fight press conference, that White ran to check out, and then reported was not a big deal.
Apparently, after Ben Henderson and Frankie Edgar got done fighting, their managers started fighting. Ben Henderson is managed by Malki Kawa, Frankie Edgar by Ali Abdel-Aziz.
Ariel Helwani tweeted the story, although Kawa said he got it wrong.

If you’re wondering what the brouhaha was during the presser, I’m told Frankie’s mgr @alidominance and Bendo’s mgr @malkikawa got into a scuffle. Not sure who won, but I’m told it was the opposite of the main event, if you catch my drift. For whatever it’s worth, Ali and his team say he punched Malki in the face. It seems like they didn’t like what he had to say after the main event, although, I’m not quite sure what was said.
Kawa contradicted Helwani’s tweet.
malki kawa @malkikawa
@arielhelwani so now you go off of one side and that’s how you do???? That’s not what happened but great job in being a dick head reporter
