Pitted against Marcin Held in Sweden, “The Bosnian Bomber” was unimpressed with the UFC for constantly pushing his opponent’s image to promote the fight.
“I just remembered when they announced they fight that there was just a picture of him holding his flag, and I thought, ‘where am I?’” Hadzovic told MMA Fighting.
“To me, it just came across like the UFC were trying to put their money on him and that made me feel like they thought I was some kind of walkover. It doesn’t bother me now, I’ve been an underdog my whole life.
