Brian Ortega and Jay Park have officially buried the hatchet six years after their infamous confrontation at UFC 248.
Ortega shared a photo of the two together in Los Angeles, writing, "We've settled everything. We respect each other." Park responded, "It's all water under the bridge. Those who know, know... Respect. As I said, I've been a fan all along. T-City."
Their feud dates back to March 2020, when Ortega allegedly slapped Park at UFC 248 over comments Park had translated while serving as a different UFC fighter’s (Chan Sung Jung a.k.a. Korean Zombie) interpreter. Park filed a police report, though his label AOMG later declined to pursue legal action, and Ortega subsequently apologized.
