Farid Basharat Says UFC Told His Team He Was a Boring Fighter

Farid Basharat UFC Getty Former UFC bantamweight fighter Farid Basharat says that the promotion told his team that he was a boring fighter.

The decision to cut Basharat has left many fans scratching their heads, as it’s odd to see the UFC let go of a 29-year-old undefeated fighter in his prime.
