Bellator MMA CEO Bjorn Rebney today said the UFC hit a new low this past week when it responded to a series of statements made by former welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre . “The UFC set the bar pretty high in terms of tasteless comments, but their recent comments about GSP are probably, in my mind, the most tasteless comments they’ve made in sometime,” Rebney said during a teleconference announcing the promotion’s Season 10 light-heavyweight tournament. UFC President Dana White pointedly told St-Pierre to “be a man and pick up the phone” after the vacationing fighter said the promotion’s stance on drug testing was part of the reason he stepped away from the sport after narrowly defending his belt at UFC 167. St-Pierre also said the UFC is a monopoly and fighters are scared to come forward to criticize the promotion
