Your job s on the line - Drakkar Klose blames lack of fighter union for poor UFC judging ready to beat up the judges for accountability

Drakkar Klose (center) [Image courtesy of @drakkar_klose on Instagram] lightweight Drakkar Klose believes a fighter union is the only way to improve the UFC's judging amid another contentious split-decision loss. Klose is the husband of UFC strawweight Cortney Casey. Casey narrowly lost out via split-decision to Antonina Shevchenko earlier this month, a decision Klose firmly believes was wrong. Speaking to Sportskeeda MMA's James Lynch, the 34-year-old believes it's only a matter of time before a fighter has an altercation with a judge and admitted it's tough when a fighter's job may be in the hands of someone else. "I don't know how it's gonna change, there's no fighter union. It's not like fighters have any say in it [picking the judges], the commissions does. What they need is a fighter or someone to go upto these judges and bother them a little bit. If I have to be the first person to go out there and beat up the judges, I'll be that person... If we're gonna have a judging system, we might aswell get a flat rate because it shouldn't be a win bonus... Your jobs on the line, it sucks." Corney Casey was upset with her decision loss but took to Twitter to express her disappointment at another controversial decision on the card: Im upest about my decision but should be livid Im upest about my decision but should be livid On the same night as Cortney Casey's loss, lightweight fought in a Fight of the Night bout against Jamie Mullarkey. Johnson also lost via a controversial split decision that left some fans feeling unhappy. Watch Drakkar Klose's interview with Sportskeeda MMA below:
