Isaac Dulgarian was caught in Yadier del Valle’s rear stranglehold just as suspiciously many guessed. PDO
Freelancer Isaac Dulgarian was a clear early favorite Yadier del Valle vs. at UFC Vegas 110 last weekend.
However, a huge surprise was seen in the featherweight match, when del Valle grabbed the victory with a back choke in less than four minutes. Shortly after the evening, wild information began to be revealed.
First of all, the betting companies noticed such suspicious activity right under the match that some of them even decided to close the match sites prematurely. Dulgarian’s rate went up wildly about an hour before the match.
Dulgarian was subsequently fired by the UFC after losing, and his pay was withheld by the Nevada Athletic Commission.
It turned out that the match is under investigation and it is suspected that Dulgaran lost on purpose for money. Among other things, the news covered the matter MMA Fighting website.
The betting scandal is not the first of its kind in the UFC. The sovereign giant promotion of the free match was already in the middle of a similar uproar in 2022.
“Have received offers”
Actively wrote about the topic in X Harry Mac claims that the FBI has taken more than 100 UFC fights under investigation. There has been no official confirmation of the claims.
The sport’s best-known insider Ariel Helwani blasted Dulgarian’s matchmaking suspicions on her podcast on Monday. Helwani revealed more shocking information.
– According to my understanding, the FBI is on the map about this. I don’t know how thoroughly it investigates, but the claims are valid. At the same time, I have heard that the Dulgarian scandal is not an isolated case.
– I have heard from several people that they have been approached by such matchmaking offers, Helwani said.
A few contestants have already publicly said that they have received just such offers.
According to Helwan’s information, the criminals are looking for not-so-known fighters, such as Dulgarian, who are paid very small fees by the billionaire UFC.
– They are offered the opportunity to earn a little more because they are in a weak position. I have heard about this now from several sources in the last 24 hours. This is a big deal.
Some are also wondering if it is a complete coincidence that the FBI is also currently investigating the NBA’s violent betting scandal.
