Al Iaquinta explains why he left fighter retreat, compares UFC to strip club

Al Iaquinta wanted to go skydiving at 4 a.m. in Las Vegas this weekend. Given the hour, the facility wasn’t open, so he ended up hanging out at the bar at the Sapphire Gentleman’s Club.

It was there that Iaquinta came up with a comparison: given his current situation, the UFC is like how he views a strip club.

“Do you want to f*ck?” Iaquinta told Ariel Helwani on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour. “Let me know. Until then, I’m sitting by the bar. I don’t care.”

Iaquinta attended the UFC Athlete Retreat this weekend, but didn’t stay long.
