Video: Should Igor Severino get a second chance after UFC biting incident led to release?

On the latest episode of “Spinning Back Clique,” the panel discusses everything around the biting incident between Igor Severino and Andre Lima at UFC on ESPN 53.

After remaining largely silent in the aftermath of his UFC release for biting, Severino finally spoke at length. Previously, we had heard from UFC CEO Dana White, Lima’s post-fight reaction, and then the NAC’s response to the incident. Now, in an exclusive interview with MMA Junkie, Severino gave his side of the story.

So how do we feel about the situation now that the dust has seemingly settled? Is the 20-year-old Severino worthy of a second chance in the octagon sometime down the line?

MMA Junkie’s Brian “Goze” Garcia, Danny Segura, Nolan King, host “Gorgeous” George Garcia, discussed Severino’s comments on the biting incident and what could the future look like for the Brazilian.

Watch their discussion in the video above, and also don’t miss this week’s complete episode of “Spinning Back Clique” below on YouTube.
