Do we have any one in ufc ?

Under Iran flag none. But there are the following in UFC:

Beneil Dariush (USA)
Ashkan Mokhtarian (Australia)
Suman Mokhtarian (Australia)
Nad Narimani (England)
Makwan Amirkhani (Finland)

Out of all these only Narimani is proud of his Persian and Iranian background. The rest only acknowledge that Iran is their country of birth.

[Rooyintan]

He is a big disgrace, but this is what happens when IR is in power, people are so embarrassed and angry, they do stupid shit like this. Either way, he is a traitor.

The funny thing is, he says he is a Turk but represents the Turk's biggest enemies, Armenia. Another delusional imbecile.

---------------------

He challenged Amir Aliakbari ... says he comes out with that Arab flag (IR Flag)

What is worse is that other Iranian MMA fighters or coaches from inside Iran liked that instagram post. The level of stupidity of some of our hamvatans is really embarrassing.

Not a single person from Republic of Armenia would ever agree to represent the flags of Turkey, Azerbaijan, Iran or any countries from Asia, Africa or Oceania. The only countries they would ever agree to represent are likes of Russia, USA, Canada, Ukraine, Greece, Bulgaria, Australia, Germany, Colombia, Argentina, Peru and likes.

Armenia is not Iran's friend and history is witness to that (attacks on Zoroastrian Temples and Zoroastrians in Ancient times; to cooperation with enemies of Iran such as Roman Empire, Mongols, Russians during the Russo-Persian Wars where they also burned the Grand Mosque of Yerevan; attacks on Azeris, Persians, Jews, Tats and Kurds living in Karabakh and surroundings during the late 19th century and early 20th century; massacre of 10,000-15,000 Iranian Muslims and Jews in Salmas, Khouy, Urumiyeh in 1918 the same people who helped them against Ottomans)

All I can say is disgraceful and shameful acts of many Iranians specially by many athletes and coaches in many sports.

Unfortunately, as I said, because IR has not care for Iran or propagated Iranian interests - from a cultural perspective and many others - Iranians abroad and inside Iran have a lot of resentment, confusion and anger.

Either way, Amir will smash this nobody. He is nothing.

I think they guy has had too many hits to the head.

You are right. However does not mean people should be stupid and humiliate our culture, our nation and our flag. If they don't want to fight under the flag of IRI then other options are to fight under the plain Tricolor old Civil Flag of Iran or the historical Lion and the Sun

People like us are more loyal to Iran than some Iranians inside Iran.

Aliakbari would never waste his time on nobodies. I am sure there are several Iranian heavyweight fighters, some Uzbek, some Tajik, some Azerbaijani, some Turkish, some Georgian and others who might get a chance to smash that nobody in the cage.

My dream:
- Iranian Schools introduce the children to our culture via Shahname, just like the greeks learn
ancient greek by reading Homer Ilias and Odysee.
- Iranian schools educate people also about preislamic iran, most importantly into
Zatosht as the founder of rational ethics but also into Achemenid Empire, Parthia and
Sassanid Dynasty.
- Government take care of ancient persian buildings such as Perspolis, Parsadegard,
Naqsheh Rostam etc.
-Iranian Society stop immitate western culture (material nihilism/captialism) and try to recrate their
own culture by adapting their iranian heiratage- That means not just celebrating Nourouz, Mehrgan, Charshanbeh Suri, but
also try to teach Gathas of Zoroaster in school.
-Clean the iranian language as much as possible from arabic/turcic vocabulary.
- Azeris, Balouchis, Kurds, Turkmen, Ahwz Arabs starting identify themselves with iranian
cultural heiratage. And Parsi becomes first language.

None of these thinks will ever happen.

Iranians should know their history and know who their enemies are.

Qajar, Pahlavi and Islamic Republic have all been hiding the war crimes of Armenians and Assyrians against the Iranian Muslim and Jewish population. Thus many Iranians think Armenia and Assyrians are friends of Iran where in fact in appearance they might be friends but deep down have hatred towards Iranians. The same goes with Palestine. Every Iranian should know how Palestinians voluntary joined Saddam's army to kill Iranian people in the Iran-Iraq War and also how they have been supporting ISIS and anti-Bashar groups in Syria.

Well if we want to look for "Enemies", just have a look on iranian history.
Our worst Enemy were the turc-mongolic invasions which lead into an iranian
genocide; just imagin modern Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Tajikistan were
iranic (Massegets, Sarmatians, Bactrians, Sogdians etc) before the invasion and were whipped out
as a consequence of the invasions.

It rediculous how some iranians name their children Cengiz or Teymur...

He is Iranian Azeri, which is not Turkish.
He is sick and tired of having to represent the Islamic Republic as an Iranian. He believes that Artsakh is part of Armenia, rightfully so.
Instead of joining the Republic of Azerbaijan, which would be great treason and against Iranian national interests, he opts to join an Armenian fighting team.

He is doing absolutely nothing wrong. Good luck to him.

Artsakh is a fake republic and rightfully called Karabakh and belongs to Republic of Azerbaijan. It has been under military occupation by Armenian military. Up until the late 19th century, the bulk of the population were Muslims and Jews (Azeris, Persians, Kurds and Tats). With the help of Russians, many Armenians moved there and started taking homes from the Muslims and Jews. Many were attacked and some slaughtered. Many Persians and Azeris fled Karabakh and surroundings and moved to Iran (that time under the Qajar Dynasty) and remained in Iran for the rest of their lives.

Armenians have been Iran's biggest enemy since historical times and nothing has changed. Anyone who agrees to fly the flag of Republic of Armenia is a traitor to our nation and to our martyrs who were slaughtered by bloodthirsty Armenian gangs and armed forces. Republic of Armenia is an Islamophobic, anti-Semetic, anti-Turkic and anti-Iranian (Persian, Kurd, Tat, Zoroastrian) entity.

Any Iranian who agrees to fly the flag of another country for money is a disgrace and the worse are flags of enemies of Iran (like Saudi Arabia, Palestine, Armenia, UAE). The only reasonable situation for flying a flag of another country apart from Iran is when the person becomes a citizen of another country after immigrating there eg. USA, Britain, Canada, Australia, Germany, etc. All athletes who solely agree to fly other flags soley for money are a disgrace such examples are our defectors who went on to represent Republic of Azerbaijan (in Wrestling, Taekwondo) or Turkey (in some sports) or this guy the worse who agreed to fight for enemy nation Armenia.

Dont understand this hatred of Iran that people have. Lots of Iranian born Azeri, kurds, armenians, jews like to disown Iran, unless it benefits them. As if saying theyre Iranian is gonna disqualify them or something. Buncha insecure idiots really. If you are a man you own up to everything and dont deny your roots.

The worst are ethnic Armenians. In Iran they behave like they love Iran and Iranians, celebrate Nowrooz, speak Persian. But abroad in USA, Canada, Australia, etc they tell everyone they are Armenian and use the flag of Republic of Armenia instead of Iran for their community centres, most of them stop speaking Persian and no longer would celebrate Nowrooz, they keep their distance from other Iranians. They probably even join/support racist and anti-Immigrant and anti-Islam or anti-Semetic groups.

Ethnic Kurds and Azeri only their ultranationalists distance themselves from other Iranians. Surprisingly many ethnic Assyrians show their love for Iran and Iranian culture more than ethnic Armenian, Jew, Baloch, Arab(Ahwazi) and some Azeri and Kurds.

Well i observe that exactly from many kurds and specially azeri turks, who proudly claim to be turks.
That Armenians&Kurds tend to be more nationalistic has def. to do with the fact that both experienced genocides cuased by turks, so
that can i understand their behaviour. But i have no clue why azeris consider themselves turks and are so proud of that...

From what I have observed abroad, many Iranian-Azeri would create their own community centre or have their own language program on radio stations or have their Saturday/Weekend language school for their children. However, they do not use the flag of Republic of Azerbaijan, they still consider themselves Iranian and still keep in contact with other Iranians. To a lesser extent most Iranian-Kurds and Iranian-Assyrians do the same except they proudly print ethnic Assyrian flag or Flag of Kurdistan or fly it on a pole on their community centres.

Iranian-Armenians, Iranian-Balochs are a different story and only few of them show love for the motherland "Iran" or "Iranian culture". Some Afghanistani people abroad introduce themselves to foreigners as "Persian", now let's forget about the Persian-speaking Hazara/Tajik/Farsiwan/Nuristani/Pamiri from Afghanistan, what is interesting is that some ethnic Uzbek/ethnic Pashtuns from Afghanistan show more love towards Iran than our Iranian-Armenian/Iranian-Baloch/others.
