Loik Radzhabov's comments on taking bathroom breaks during women's MMA fights backfires as Virna Jandiroba puts him in place: "Find a therapist"
Virna Jandiroba was not too happy to realize that fellow fighter Loik Radzhabov actively avoids women's MMA.
Radzhabov was one of the fighters who featured on the prelims card of UFC Vegas 94, headlined by Jandiroba and Amanda Lemos. Despite fighting on the undercard of a women's headliner, the Tajikistan national does not fancy women's fights.
During an interview with Red Corner MMA in the lead-up to this weekend's UFC card, 'The Tajik Tank' had blatantly stated his aversion to women's MMA when he was quizzed about the upcoming main event and the women's divisions:
"Well, I don't watch it, no matter who is fighting. Actually, when women fight, I take a break to get some snacks or go to the toilet."

Suffice it to say, that the lightweight contender's comments did not sit well with 'Carcara'. During the post-fight press conference, the Brazilian blasted Radzhabov, suggesting that he take professional help to sort his issues out:
"I'm not someone that is going to be able to help him, but maybe he needs to go get some analysis, you know find a therapist that is going to help him overcome those issues that he has. There is probably something there that he needs to sort out and he is going to have to find a specialist to do it."

Jandiroba delivered one of the best performances of her career at UFC Vegas 94 as she cliched a second-round armbar submission over Amanda Lemos. The win has garnered much fanfare with many labeling it one of the best displays of jiu-jitsu in mixed martial arts.
The win is sure to greatly elevate her standing in the division and possibly even fetch her a title shot.
Meanwhile, Radzhabov had a tough night out this time around. The 33-year-old succumbed to a unanimous decision loss to Trey Ogden at the event.
