A provision in the UFC’s conduct policy allows for financial penalties against fighters who say or do the wrong thing. Is that a problematic move, or a genuine attempt to rein in bad behavior? MMAjunkie columnist Ben Fowlkes and retired UFC and WEC fighter Danny Downes discuss in this week’s Trading Shots. Fowlkes: I got a look at the new “athlete conduct policy” the UFC sent to fighters this week, Danny. In addition to the slight upgrade to lower Reebok pay tiers , there was also this: “In the event an athlete engages in derogatory or offensive conduct, including without limitation insulting language, symbols, or actions about a person’s ethnic background, heritage, color, race, national origin, age, religion, disability, gender or sexual orientation, such conduct will result in sanctions in the form of contractual reduction from the athlete’s purse for his/her next bout.” I’m of two minds on this. On one hand, this sounds like a positive step if you’re tired of supporting a sport in which the athletes regularly hurl anti-gay slurs at each other without consequence
