King Green says Terrance McKinney UFC 329 fight feels like betrayal

King Green believes his upcoming UFC 329 opponent Terrance McKinney accepted their fight out of perceived advantage, creating tension between two fighters who considered themselves friends. Green and McKinney were together roughly a week before the UFC offered the matchup, and Green advised McKinney against fighting him, citing wisdom from Nate Diaz about not competing against close associates. Despite Green's objections, McKinney signed the contract, which Green interprets as the rising 155-pounder viewing the bout as favorable. "Maybe you think this is an easy fight. Maybe you think I'm some sucker or some bitch," Green said on UFC 329's Embedded series. "We're gonna fight. Let's go fight then." The 39-year-old veteran (35-17) enters the bout on a three-fight win streak featuring two finishes. McKinney (18-8) brings an unblemished first-round finish rate in the UFC and has never gone to a decision in his professional career. Their clash takes place July 11 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas at UFC 329, where both fighters hope to settle the dispute inside the Octagon.
