Vinny Magalhaes wants to leave M-1 Global not because of the company, but due to Executive Director Evgeni Kogan

Vinny Magalhaes is a guy that can so obviously tool every man, woman and child on the ground that it's borderline hilarious. Alright, well maybe not so much tool children on the ground -- that's more of a Penn State thing. Magalhaes' Brazilian jiu-jitsu is the closest thing the world will ever get to a real-life Game Genie. That's the greatest example I can possibly use to show his dominance in the jiu-jitsu world. It's like legally cheating. Besides, Vinny Magalhaes can't help it if he's the new reigning +99kg ADCC champion. He can't take back the six gold medals he snatched at the Rio de Janeiro State Jiu-Jitsu Championship Tournament, or the Brazilian National Jiu-Jitsu Championship gold medal he has sitting on his stack of other gold medals he obtained from being the American National Jiu-Jitsu Champion. Vinny can't help that he's dominant in jiu-jitsu. He suffers from an illness known as 'tapticulous,' symptoms include forcing other people to tap if they unfortunately venture into his vicinity. It's highly contagious. Vaccinate your children this Winter.

We caught up with Vinny Magalhaes this week, and he told us that he does intend to leave M-1 Global, but it's not due to the company. In fact, the company has treated him quite well. However, it's the executive director, Evgeni Kogan, that he just can't handle anymore.

Yeah that was quite obvious when he complained about Kogan cheering for a fellow Russian (as if this does happen anywhere else). From what ive heard Vinny made M-1 an ultimatum, either M-1 fire Evgani Kogan or he walks out, no surprise which way M-1 went and quite frankly im glad M-1 backed Kogan. Ive said time and time again that what Vinny did and his request was a bitch ass move, especially when Kogan apologized to Vinny straight after the fight.

Kogan was unprofessional but M-1 gave Vinny a break and treats him good. Vinny is the champ in a promotion that´s on the way to become huge in europe. Does Vinny think Dana is better than Kogan?

What Kogan did was unprofessional but also an understandable reaction, everyone has their favorite fighter especially when that fighter is a fellow country men.

What Vinny did in discrediting everyone even after he received an apology was a bitch ass move. Afterall in an earlier video, Vinny himself said that M-1 was the only one to give him a chance after no one else would have him, theres no need to act like a diva now.

Vinny seems to be a bit childish. He should appreciate being the M-1 champ. If the UFC signs Vinny he will cut him after one loss.

Pretty dumb on Vinny's part to burn bridges for nothing. Dana is way worse to fighters than anything in this situation. Oh well, if Vinny does get back into the ufc he will just get cut after he loses and have no where to go (at least if i was in charge of a company I wouldn't hire him since he will talk bad about you publicly-and M-1 is a company he says he likes and treated him well).

Maybe he rethinks and starts thinking about defending his belt.

Yeah vinny is a fool if he thinks dana is any better. if the same thing happened in the boofc dana would talk shit about him probably cut him and he would not get a apology. Another thing kongan was hyping the hell out of vinny when he won the abu dabi championship but thats still not a excuse to do what he did.

It must be the typical brazilian mentallity. Here only UFC exists and the others doesn't count. He probably wants to be like Anderson Silva making big money and appear on TV shows too.

It is understadable after Evgeni Kogan said to him and everything, and i might be judging to early, but knowing these guys and seeing the way he talked like the other companies were shit i can't see it in other way.

Let Vinny leave, his a cry baby. Promoter was cheering for other guy to win, I must now leave and make big deal out of this.

I understand where Vinny is coming from. He just got insulted by the fact that he was being cheered against. But as a professional athlete getting PAID to fight and BEAT people. That shouldn't even be a big deal especially if you are the champion. If anything, it should motivate you to keep winning.
