Eddie Wineland isn’t one to complain about his placement on a card.
But if the veteran has his say, he will not be competing on UFC Fight Pass again anytime soon.
Wineland completed the digital stream portion of UFC on FOX 22 this past weekend with a first round victory over Takeya Mizugaki. He explained to MMAjunkie why he wasn’t a fan of being on the product.
“I didn’t have a Fight Pass (account) set up. I had to deal with getting a Fight Pass set up and getting a cable so they could hook the computer to the TV and yada, yada, yada,” he said. “But, needless to say, my family got to watch, so all is well.
Wineland, who is 23-11-1 overall and 5-5 inside the Octagon, was ready to retire after suffering a second broken jaw. But he decided that his kids being able to see him compete was enough to get back in training.
“The reason I keep fighting is because of my boys. I’ve had my jaw broken twice. I was ready to hang them up,” he said. “And we had my first son, Jack, and I just got the itch again. You’ve got to prove to your boy that you can get up, keep moving forward, that you don’t quit because you get knocked down. It’s re-lit a fire.”
