UFC middleweight Brendan Allen tried to squash the beef with Marvin Vettori after earning the victory over the latter at UFC 318 on Saturday night.
Allen (25-7) said a few words to Vettori following the decision. The two may have had bad blood, but they also both hold personal tragedies.
“I just told him, our problems aside, my heart goes out to him and his family. My brother has his accident and he totally lost his brother so I can’t imagine the pain that it feels to fully lose your brother,” Allen told reporters including Cageside Press at his post-fight scrum.
“I didn’t lose mine fully, but it still hurts.”

Vettor didn’t react outwardly to the comments, but one of his coaches sure did.
“His coach started talking sh*t and I told him ‘get the f*ck out of my face’. It’s just people sticking their nose between two grown men,” he said.
“I don’t have any bad blood with him (Vettori). He can say whatever he wants, he can feel how he wants before, after, that’s on him.”
Now Allen looks ahead from his #11 ranking for his next challenge.
“It (the fight) just happened. There’s still so many fights that can come. We’ll see what happens with the UFC and what they want from me. (Jared) Cannonier, MVP (Michael Venom Page), Roman (Dolidze), Fluffy (Anthony Hernandez),” he said.
“You got Caio (Borralho), (Nassourdine) Imavov. You got Sean Strickland still sitting out there. You got a lot of fights. For now I go home, see my kids and my wife, give them all a hug and kiss and tell them thank you. Be a dad and a husband for a little while.”
