UFC Paris delivered more than just fists and kicks last night. Renato Moicano, fresh off his main event victory, decided to spice things up. He has always been known for his unfiltered interviews. But this time, ‘Money’ took it to a whole new level. The Brazilian lightweight didn’t just beat Benoit Saint-Denis – he verbally KO’d the entire French government.
Moicano let loose In a fiery post-fight speech as Michael Bisping stood there holding the mic. He did not hold back on anyone in the French government and even took a jab at the concept of democracy.
“F**k Macron. F**k all globalists. F*** all these motherf***ing globalists. They try to push a political and corrupt agenda…And I hope that you understand that democracy is a fallacy. Democracy is not the real government. So please read Hans-Hermann Hoppe and understand why the world is going crazy like that today.”
The Brazilian admitted he initially planned to trash-talk all of France. But apparently, a quick tour of the Eiffel Tower changed his mind. Renato Moicano praised the French people but absolutely lambasted their government. Moicano’s rant wasn’t just random swearing, though. He actually had some points to make. He encouraged fans to read up on democracy and government.
Moicano’s passionate speech left fans and fighters alike scratching their heads. Some cheered his boldness, while others cringed at the political turn. Either way, it certainly got people talking.
