Dakota cochrane gay
Gay fighters are nothing new. The Spartans were so tough the form of Pankration they practiced allowed even biting and eye gouging in competition, and were encouraged to enter homsoexual relationships as a way to build military cohesiveness. Modern MMA has had several fighters who are known to be bisexual, and at least one, Shad Smith, who is entirely comfortable and public with his sexual preference.
Stil, it was still notable when it was learned that proepective TUF15 fighter Dakota Cochrane had starred in a number of gay pornographic videos. However, Cochrane, a 25-year-old father of two with a beautiful fiancee, has said firmly that he is straight, and that participation in homosexual pornography while in college was a mistake in the past.
While the expression initially seems absurd – the phrase “you suck dick or you don’t” sums it up – there is a long tradition of married, linear porn actors appearing in gay porn for the capital. And that is what Cochrane says, he did it for the $80,000 he made as a broke college kid.
Cochrane made no effort to preserve his past a secret, and told prospective management companies about his past, which resulted in no
Emile Griffith and Benny ‘Kid’ Paret fought three times in the early 60s. The first time, Griffith took Paret’s welterweight world champion boxing title. In the second fight, Paret took it back.
At the weigh ins for the second fight, the Cuban-born Paret slapped Griffith with a limp wrirst, and called him “Maricon” the Spanish street slang equivalent of “faggot.” Griffith vowed that if Paret ever taunted him again in that style, they would battle right there.
At the weigh ins for the third and final fight, Paret did it again. And that evening, Griffith beat him to death in the ring.
We now live in improve, less bigoted age, where it is taunting about sexual preference that is shameful, not the sexual preference itself.
“If there was a gay fighter in UFC, I long for he would appear out,” said UFC President Dana Pale last year. “I could care less if there’s a gay fighter in the UFC. There probably is and there’s probably more than one.”
Now MiddleEasy is reporting that TUF15 fighter Dakota Cochrane, who crushed Jamie Varner last year at Titan Fighting Championships 20, is also a gay porn star.

TUF contestant’s controversial past
THE CANADIAN Push
LAS VEGAS — Dakota Cochrane’s controversial past is no classified in the MMA world.
Now the question becomes how his little stint in gay porn will play out when the fresh season of "The Ultimate Fighter Live" debuts Friday night.
Dealing with his past is nothing brand-new for Cochrane so he’s ready for anything.
"Of course it bothers me," he said this week on the set of the reality TV show, which airs on FX Canada. "But I can’t do much about it. I’ve kind of dealt with it since college, since the first time it came out.
"It’s not anything new, it’s been around for six years and I’ve kind of had to deal with it over and over and over. Just another bridge I have to cross."
The 25-year-old Cochrane — who is not gay and has a one-year-old son with fiancee Lacey — says he earned nearly $80,000 from taping a series of gay videos while a college student at the University of Nebraska-Kearney, where he was a standout track athlete.
"I’m not going to try to obscure it," he said. "If you type in on Google, it comes up pret
Mixed Martial Arts fighter Dakota Cochrane talks about gay porn star past
Omaha, Nebraska - Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighter Dakota Cochrane said he regrets appearing in gay porn films when he was younger, a job that earned him $80,000.
It's definitely a judgment I regret," he told MMA Fighting. "If I would have known what would happen I definitely wouldn't have done it. But I had cash issues and I needed help. I went there to do pictures, and they started throwing cute high numbers in front of me. I didn't really think. It was a big mistake."
This week, FX announced that Cochrane, who grew up in the small town of Fairbury, Neb., was one of 32 finalists for their show "The Ultimate Fighter." And it wasn't long before some active Googlers figured out that Cochrane had gone by the screen name "Danny" from the popular porn site Sean Cody, while a college student at the University of Nebraska-Kearney.
Cochrane said he is unbent, and was dating his now fiancee, Lacey, at the time. The couple has two children and are planning to earn married.
Cochrane said he did not hide his porn past when he approached Ultimate Fighting Championship.
