Russian UFC heavyweight of Ukrainian descent Alexey Oleynik talks about the American reaction to what's happening in Ukraine and the actions of his compatriots.

"It rarely happens, but if they do ask questions, I comment on what is really happening without reference to social networks and television. I explain it to others, but I'm not messing with it, I'm not blowing it up on my social media and I'm keeping my opinion to myself. I have one and that's it. It's not like the community is obsessed with this topic. There are separate inadequate manifestations, like in the rest of the world. There are plenty of idiots, but such statements among Americans are rare. It's mostly my Ukrainian compatriots that come here and do crazy things, but they are put in their place and calmed down.
