MMA fighter Nicolas Dalby weighed in for a match at UFC Fight Night in Hamburg, Germany on Saturday flaunting his support for the LGBTQ community in a “We Are All Fighters” t-shirt. He later posted a photo to Instagram.
Wrote Dalby: “Weigh-ins for #UFCHamburg done! 170 and ready to smash Sobotta! 😈 But it was more important for me to show my support for the #LGBTQ community ❤️💛💚💙💜. #WeAreAllOne“
Here’s video:
Dalby lost his match to Peter Sobotta.
Wrote Sports Joe: “Nicolas Dalby entered into the UFC as an undefeated prospect, but after suffering a lopsided unanimous decision loss (30-26 across) to Peter Sobotta in the lion’s den at the weekend, he holds a record of 1-2-1 on MMA’s biggest stage. Dalby showed an almost superhuman ability to take damage without being finished to see the tough contest out until the final buzzer. Sobotta rocked him with a huge right uppercut midway through the first round.”
Dalby later showed off a bruised eye and said he had a broken orbital bone.
Maybe a little massage will be of help:
Dalby talked about wearing the “We Are All Fighters” shirt in a post-match interview with MMAViking.com:
“[Gay rights] doesn’t come up to the surface that often [in UFC fighting]. I have a bunch of good friends that are gay as well so I just wanted to show that Mixed Martial Arts and support of the gay community can go hand in hand.”
