After an intimate video of UFC flyweight fighter Jeff Molina with another man leaked on social media, he announced that he is bisexual.
“Not the way I wanted to do this but the chance to do it when I was ready was taken away from me. I’ve tried to keep my dating life private from social media,” the 25-year-old Molina posted on Twitter on Friday.
“The thought of my buddies, teammates, and (people) I look up to looking at me different let alone treating me different for something I can’t control was something I couldn’t fathom.”
Adding further, he wrote, “I wanted to be known for my skills and what I’ve dedicated the last 11 years of my life to not and not the ‘bi ufc fighter’ that I’m sure would just be translated to ‘gay UFC fighter.’”
