Megan Anderson is not pleased with Casey Kenney.
During a recent appearance on the Timbo Sugarshow podcast with Tim Welch and UFC fighter Sean O’Malley, Kenney answered a question about whether he would have sex with the UFC featherweight title contender.
I guess MMA is a line of work where you can publicly talk about whether you’d have sex with a coworker in an utterly degrading way and face zero consequences.
Disgusting behavior and it’s unfortunate that he’ll be fighting on my card in March. https://t.co/hJd1OuHIyD

Anderson and Kenney are currently set to compete on the UFC 259 fight card in March, with Anderson challenging featherweight champion Amanda Nunes in the main event.
Kenney, who fights Dominick Cruz at UFC 259, quickly made an apology on Twitter, admitting “I was wrong” and promising to be “more careful with my words” in the future.
@MeganA_mma I’m sorry this upset you. I will be more careful with my words. I was just answering a question and thought it was all a joking matter. I see I was wrong and I’m sorry. Best of luck with training camp and your fight.

Welch also responded via Twitter to Anderson’s criticism:
The only reason I asked that is because your way taller then casey! I think your hott AF.

Here’s how other notable MMA figures reacted to Kenney’s comments.
Absolutely disgusting is right. I’m really sorry you are dealing with this and there absolutely should be consequences. Shameful. On a brighter note, I am very much looking forward to your championship opportunity. ♥️

It needs to be clear to everyone that @MeganA_mma is an outstanding MMA competitor who deserves more respect from all of her peers. We need to do better
