Askren's future sidetracked by perceived lack of flair
His trainer is confident Askren will get to show that ability in the octagon -- eventually. "Lets face it: No other promotion compares to the UFC," Roufus said. "The UFC is king, and anyone who says he doesn't want to compete in that organization is lying. That's where Ben wants to be. That's where I want him to be. It's too bad it's not happening now, but my job isn't to whine or complain. My job is to motivate the troops to march. And at this point I'm motivating Ben to march toward his next opportunity to further his career. The UFC will come some day for him."
