It wasn’t the first time an MMA fighter has used WWE antics to promote himself in the cage, but last night when Ben Rothwell tried, well, it was just weird. Rothwell tried to explain himself at the post-fight press conference:

“I guess you got to make some noise, right? I got to get people to pay attention. When you say inspiration, I think a lot of it comes from the writers right now in MMA. Constantly i feel like I’m getting overlooked and I’m not getting any respect. Again I was the underdog tonight on the writers column; everybody picked Mittrione. I’m getting used to it, I like it, keep making me the underdog. Keep doing it, I like putting a loss on your picks there. I guess I’ll keep being the underdog in my next fights, and that’s fine with me because as you can see, it doesn’t make a difference.”
