A wise man once said, ‘Mo money, mo problems,’ and Bobby “King” Green certainly knows the truth of that.
The striking artist formerly known as Bobby legally changed his name to King in 2024, and then bought the Fantasy Topless strip club in Colton, California at the end of 2025. Trying to juggle a strip club and pro fighting career sounds like a lot, but Green comes into his UFC 328 bout with Jeremy Stephens on a two-fight win streak, and bookies have him a heavy favorite to beat “Lil Heathen” in New
Jersey.
That doesn’t mean things are going smoothly in Green’s life, though. King let people in on how tough things have been lately during Wednesday’s media scrum.
“People have been playing with my heart,” Green said. “People have been playing my money. Everybody that come near me, I gotta feel like, what are you here for? Because they think you got some money. I bought a strip club and they’re like, ‘Oh, you got money. You’re a strip club owner. You got money. You got money.’ So people play with you a certain way.”
“They’re like, ‘Oh, let me get next to them.’ And I gotta question everybody around me and go, ‘Why are you here? Do you want some attention? Do you want some money? What is it about me that you want?’ You know what I’m saying? I feel like a giant cookie and everybody wants a bite.”
Someone recently took a big bite out of Green to the tune of $300,000.
“I had an ex-girlfriend, and she was basically kicking me up saying, ‘Oh, somebody died,’ and she needs some money to help her and stuff,” Green revealed. “I help people. I take care of people, bro. So I let her come by, get her a little money and stuff trying to help her out. And I left to go to practice. I came back. I left my jewelry in the house … And I normally keep it in my car because I know I’m with some crazy motherf–kers, you know. And she took everything. Took everything.”
“Bro, I couldn’t sleep for like five days driving around looking for my s–t. Like, it’s been fucking dark, bro. It’s been real dark. But it comes with this s–t, you know … I told you I’m f–king nuts.”
The upside to this horrible situation? It could mean another four-fight year for King, which we haven’t seen since 2023.
“I need all that and some more,” Green said of potential UFC 328 bonus money. “You know? I’m that mad. I’m that pissed. I need that and more. So I plan on going back to work right after this, come back and do another one.”
