Varner kicks, chokes Phoenix Gorilla in Suns PSA

November 29, 2014 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

UFC Lightweight Jamie Varner shot a public service announcement for the Phoenix Suns which aired in the arena during a Phoenix Suns game.  As part of the PSA, Varner promoted the UFC’s upcoming UFC on Fox event in Phoenix.

The PSA is the standard general announcement given before most sporting events.  Varner and the Phoenix Gorilla offer some comic relief in the skit as Varner gives the promo in a cage and kicks and chokes out the Gorilla for not following the rules.

Via UFC’s Facebook page:

Post by UFC.

Payout Perspective:

Good exposure for Varner and his gym which is in the Phoenix area. The PSA is a good tie-in to the upcoming UFC on Fox 13 card coming to Phoenix December 13th. Varner is slated to fight Drew Dober on the prelim card of the event.

Dana White is such a MAGA stooge. He runs around every podcast talking about how he’s “not political” and how Donald Trump is “just his friend,” all while asking that same friend to help him write off more gambling losses and throwing him a UFC fight in front of the White House

New: UFC President Dana White has sent a letter to President Donald Trump asking him to help reverse the 90 percent limit on gambling loss deductions for US taxpayers that became law last year.

The issue has been a concern for both bettors and the gambling industry itself.
