Its halloween, Agbekos nick is King Kong.
What was the problem? Was there something not televised? Was the bitch pulling his chain bare assed or something?
Didn't watch the entrances, was wondering what he did too, I saw the mask but that's it. People need to chill out, it was Halloween and that's Agbeko's nickname.
People love to play the race card at any given chance.. I reckon some people need to stop being so sensitive and harden the **** up.
Yeah, It seemed like he went through one of those "I think I should be offended by this?" white guy moments where no one else is even thinking anything other than his name is King Kong and it's Halloween. He made it more of a big deal than it should have been. Kinda like what's happening with the Khan - Salita religion thing. Very few people care about it. They just wanna see a fight.
On another note, didn't some guy get carried to the ring in a cage dressed as a lion for a fight on ESPN some months ago?
:lame: Why is wearing a gorilla mask on Halloween disturbing?
That doesn't make sense. I see people with gorilla masks/costumes nearly every Halloween.

There are some disturbing racial undertones of having a white woman leading an African man in chains. Some viewers may have been offended by that.
The King Kong theme may have been misunderstood or overlooked...or the imagery may have just been disturbing.
not to mention the gorilla mask.

I think he may have offended the judges.
The director or producer was probably in his ear saying they didn't approve of it, because they don't know Agbeko's deal with King Kong. So Al probably had to throw that hasty apology together, you could tell by how he said it he was not really that into talking about the matter.
He should have just explained Agbeko's deal with King Kong but a picture is worth a thousand words so I guess they thought it best to just apologize.
