What if...

why would it be risky to wear a free palestine, legalize it etc t-shirt in the land of the free, the land of freedom of speech? why would a fighter yelling free palestine in joe's mic most likely get cut?

Because it's highly inappropriate...not the time nor the place. The UFC isn't an open forum, and any fighter who would be stupid enough to do so would be fired with the quickness.

It has nothing to do with what their views or opinions are. The UFC, sponsors and Fox arn't paying them to voice opinions on political views.

If a fighter is so inclined, there are plenty of social media opportunities to do so.

And Colton Smith can talk about the war in Iraq? What's the difference?

Hypocrisy.
