Marcus Davis wurde von der UFC gesagt, das er bei UFC 72 nicht mit seinem normalen Nickname:“The Irish Hand Grenade“ auftretten kann, stattdessen bekommt er den Nickname “Celtic Warrior“ .
Zur Begruendung meinte Davis:“I was told ‘The Irish Hand Grenade’ was not acceptable in Belfast because it would translate poorly. It’d be like calling yourself the Taliban Bomber and fighting in New York. So, it’s a temporary change implemented by the UFC. However, I will always be The Irish Hand Grenade when I fight in the U.S.”
