Fousey calls out assistant for not being supportive, sparking heated debate with her

Fousey is certainly familiar with crafting viral moments, particularly ones involving meltdowns. This recent incident seems to follow a similar pattern. During his livestream on August 14, the streamer engaged in a heated debate with his assistant and girlfriend, Kitty. He said:

"Not one text to say, 'Hey Yousef, thank you so much for flying me out to Vegas. I'm having such a good time.' Not even a sorry, not even a thank you. I haven't been thanked once by you."

Subsequently, the pair engaged in a back-and-forth exchange, during which Kitty expressed her desire to spend quality time with Fousey. However, the latter seemed skeptical or unconvinced by her statements. The argument took an ugly turn when Kitty accused the streamer of being emotionally abusive. She said:

"Do you think it's fair for me to be abused (emotionally)?"

Naturally, this did not sit well with the streamer, who retorted:

"All right this conversation is done."

He added:

"You can go because I want you the f**k out. That's why. I don't care what chat says, I don't care anything. The door is right there. You know when our flight is, what car is here, you know when we're going home, go have fun with Nadia."
