Iridium Sports Agency says Bobby Green attacked at UFC Austin fighter hotel
Bobby Green will be fighting Jalin Turner in the UFC Austin co-main event on Saturday night, but it appears there may have been some fighting going down before he even hits the scales on Friday morning.
On Wednesday, Green’s management, Iridium Sports Agency, put out a message on social media stating that their fighter was attacked during a media event at the fighter hotel. According to the post, the alleged attack came from members of the camp of UFC Austin headliner Arman Tsarukyan.
“During a media interview earlier today, Iridium Sports Agency client Bobby Green was unprovokingly accosted and attacked by a member of Arman Tsarukyan’s team at the UFC host hotel. Bobby tried to avoid the conflict, but he was put in a position where he had to defend himself and his coach from the larger, aggressive group.”

Green later posted clips on his own social media.
“Sh*t just getting started, n***a,” Green said on Instagram. “That’s a b*tch ass n***a right there. Yeah, I’m’a get you right there. Y’all ran up on me, n***a. Y’all ran up on me. What’s up?”
Then in another clip:
“Hey, I don’t be starting nothing with nobody,” Green said. “But if you start that sh*t with me, I’m definitely going to finish it. This is just starting. N***a might go to jail tonight. Don’t f*ck around playing with me. This b*tch ass n***a ran up on me trying to start sh*t, and he didn’t know I was going to finish it. I stuck one of his homies. Stop playing with me. … They all ran up on me by myself, and they was acting all that tough. As soon as I ran into that n***a again with my n****s, then he was, ‘Oh, no. Oh, no. No. No.’ No, you started that sh*t. But as soon as security comes, you want to start acting tough again.”
