Although his record might not be pleasing to the eyes, fans still tune in to watch his stout-hearted fighting style and distinctive personality. MMA world saw a refined and reformed version of Green when he last stepped into the octagon at UFC 271, just a few weeks back. He displayed crisp boxing and got away unscathed against a tough opponent in Nasrat Haqparast.

Fans took notice of Bobby Green when he beat Clay Guida, an experienced veteran of the game and delivered a profound moment during the post-fight interview. He called up his foster father, who is Caucasian, midway during the interview to spread the message of love and irrelevance of skin color in today’s age.

“Right now, in this time in our country, we’re doing this whole ‘Black Lives Matter’. Everyone’s fighting, everyone looting. This is my father. I was born in foster care. I didn’t have a mother or father. They gave me a way. My father wasn’t fit to be my father. This is my dad here, Jacob Benny. He’s been there since the beginning. He’s done everything. He’ll lay his life down for me, I’ll lay my life down for him. I don’t judge any man on the color of their skin but on the content of their character. We’re here, we love. It doesn’t matter what color, it’s all about love.”
