So this happened after we went off air from #LFA36 last night. Thoughts? pic.twitter.com/WNlrNA9Za1

This is by far the most disrespectful act that I have ever seen inside of an octagon, at MMA promotion LFA 36 in California on Friday, heavyweight Drew Chatman knocked out his opponent Irvins Ayala, and celebrated by doing a back flip off his unconscious opponent. Actually it gets even stranger, Irvins Ayala knocked down Drew Chatman and was diving in to land big shots in an attempt to finish the fight, but he essentially knocked himself out when his chin collided with his downed opponents knee. For front flipping off of his opponents unconscious body, Drew Chatman was disqualified and suspended 90 days for unsportsmanlike conduct, while offering the following apology:
“Let me be honest with you, man. I don’t deserve to get paid for that. It’s disappointing watching that. My mother has to see that. People that look up to me and see me become an inspiration to them have to look at that. … It just happened so fast. So, the rules are the rules. And at the end of the day, when you actually look at what took place, I’m okay with having my pay taken away. I’m okay with being suspended 90 days. I’m okay with that. Because you can’t get that back. The video is priceless. I have to look back at that and live with regret every single day.”
