Drew Fickett and Mark Pavelich Exchanging Verbal Jabs

UFC veteran Drew “The Master” Fickett has made a thread on ‘The Underground’ providing some choice words for MFC president Mark Pavelich following his decision to put a halt to Fickett’s bout at Strikeforce.

Thursday night Fickett agreed to replace Joe Riggs at Strikeforce but things were quickly stopped when Strikeforce promoter Scott Coker was informed of Fickett’s prior contractual obligations. Fickett is currently scheduled for face Ryan “The Real Deal” Ford at MFC 17: Hostile Takeover and in his MFC contract it states that he cannot compete 5 weeks prior to the event.

While Fickett is clearly unhappy, Mark Pavelich had good reason to put a halt to the bout. If Fickett were to get KO’d he would have received a 30 day medical suspension putting Pavelich’s main event in jeopardy.

Here is Fickett’s attack on ‘The Underground’:

Nobody wants to fight. Everybody is a skater now. Unlike the good old days when blood for blood was for the gallons. MFC promoter Mark Pavlich MARK PAVLICH MARK PAVLICH MARK PAVLICH MARK PAVLICH whatever his fucking name is called me last night threatening my life because I was going to fight on short notice at 185lbs in Strikeforce today an entire month before his mfc welterweight gold glittered diamond crested world championship of the whole universe. Now Scott Koker (who fucking rocks!) doesn’t want to get involved and can’t let me fight in his show. Thanks for being a complete fucking doosh bag Mark…thanks for threatening me and my friends and running me out 20,000$…pretty sweet for a blue collar fighter all about the fighters who is just trying to make some money for his unborn baby girl…but I’m the asshole! I’m always the asshole! Fuck you Big Brother. Fuck you corporate politics. And fuck you Jake Shields for being a punk ass bitch. Somebody run into me on the fucking Street…P-L-E-A-S-E. Here’s to Victory Athletics and Team Scrub. Some Real Soldiers who aren’t afraid to stand up in battle. Fuck all the affliction wearing poser’s that don’t even remotely know the direction to…the….”Skate…Park.”Master

MFC president Mark Pavelich responded by saying:

Drew,

You sign a two fight deal and it clearly states and even bolded that you can’t fight 5 weeks prior to the dates of my show’s and I’m the bad guy. No fucking way put it on yourself don’t sign be the rebel be the guy who tells everyone to blow but don’t put this on me, no way. I have never spoke to you in my life and be very clear, I yelled at your manager and was pissed. I have never spoken to you in my life. Come take the belt and stop making excuses. Good luck,

Mark Pavelich MFC President
