Jay Park slapped by UFC fighter Brian Ortega at UFC event

[snowphone.livejournal.com]

Korean music artist Jay Park, who served as Chan Sung Jung’s translator during his recent appearance on the show, was slapped by Brian Ortega during tonight’s event, Park tells me. A scuffle ensued and then broken up. Ortega took issue with Park’s translation on the show.

UFC Fighter Jung Chansung (The Korean Zombie) is managed by AOMG. "The Korean Zombie" accused Ortega of "ducking" after he withdrew from their scheduled fight in December. Ortega took to Instagram to respond to "The Korean Zombie" before turning his attention to Jay Park, who was translating during the interview.

Wtf @ attacking the person who is simply translating. It's not his fault the dude said what he did, what the hell is that guy's problem??? That's a lot of shit talking from a guy that waited until no one was around to defend Jay Park to attack him, especially since it's not like he's going to be able to fight back against a UFC fighter. He's literally saying, openly on Instagram, that he intended to attack him simply because of the person he translated for. That's so fucked up???

what the actual fuck is this fuckery?

[myungung.livejournal.com]

this is terrible. like why do you have to hit someone who's translating, and also alone? also, you're not in a war sir. plus it does not absolve you of hitting a non-fighter??

[volume1995.livejournal.com]

as much as i dont like jay this was really unnecessary... why would you put hands on someone who has NO actual ties to the actual fight between you and your opponent? trash

UFC is gross just like boxing is gross.

"in acts of war" ????

The privilege of some people is truly disgusting. Someone needs to drop this guy into a real warzone

[lydzi.livejournal.com]

Ia. This is shocking on more than one level.

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

Jay is a douche but getting slapped for literally translating what someone else said is just... wtf.

[fadeintoyou.livejournal.com]

There’s just lines and boundaries you don’t cross and slapping someone’s translator is bad form. What an asshat.

[daynr.livejournal.com]

I agree with all the outrage and waiting until a translator is alone is crazy bs.


But also the image of Jay getting slapped cracks me up. (I'm picturing more of the bugs bunny version of slapping, not UFC.)

There was no need to hit Jay when all he did was translate. Jay should press charges on this pendejo.

I'm sorry, I laughed. My sympathy runs low for this pedophile supporting asshole. It was unwarranted but oh well lol, team no one

Right, out of all the legitimate reasons to want to slap Jay Park, I can't believe this is the reason why it happened.

[premonitioner.livejournal.com]

yup!! when i read the headline i was like 'oh what did he do NOW', fully thinking he did something to provoke the guy

[blck-ink.livejournal.com]

[dongsaengkiller.livejournal.com]

Bitch ass behavior

[modestgoddess79.livejournal.com]

I hope he gets fined by UFC and charged with assault.

[aeries-amethyst.livejournal.com]

i don't care much for jay park outside of some of his better songs. now of all the things he's said and done, this is legit one of the least that he should be getting attacked for. he better sue for this.

Ortega you're a coward but thanks for doing the lords work.
