“Trading Viktor Bout for Brittney Griner Is Like Trading Tom Brady For” – WNBA Star’s Release From Russian Detention Gets Unusual Comparison From UFC Star

WNBA star Brittney Griner was detained in Russia for 10 months for allegedly carrying illegal narcotics possession. However, she was recently traded with the international arms dealer Viktor Bout for her release from a Russian prison. Griner‘s release has elicited a lot of reactions from the populace, as well as some big names. Although the UFC star, Derek Brunson had the most unusual reaction to the matter.

Brunson made a rather strange comparison of this trade with NFL superstar Tom Brady and an Adam Sandler character. That is correct. It really is as unexpected as it sounds.

UFC star had the oddest take on the Brittney Griner trade

Derek Brunson took to Twitter to put across his take on the trade between the WNBA star Brittney Griner and an international arms dealer, Viktor Bout. This trade, according to Brunson, made no sense whatsoever.

The UFC star went on to compare the prison trade with NFL superstar Tom Brady and an Adam Sandler character from the movie, ‘The Waterboy’.

Brunson wrote, “Trading Viktor Bout for Brittney Griner is like trading Tom Brady for Bobby Boucher 😂😂😂😂 . Who won that trade !?!?”

The UFC fighter compared the prisoner swap to hypothetically exchanging NFL superstar Tom Brady for ‘Bobby Boucher’, a character played by Adam Sandler in the movie ‘The Waterboy‘ who serves as the Water boy for the Louisiana college football team.

Brunson certainly has a knack for bringing out the most peculiar take on any topic in a way that no one would anticipate.

The basketball star’s wife gives her statement:

The news of her wife’s release overwhelmed Cherelle Griner, wife of Brittney Griner. She thanked the President of the United States, Joe Biden, and the entire administration for their efforts to bring her wife back.

Cherelle Griner said in her address that these last months had been the darkest of her life. She continued by expressing her happiness at the fact that her family is once again ‘whole’ today. However, there hasn’t been any clarification whatsoever on the WNBA star’s future in the game. But as of now, Griner‘s fans and family are just pleased to see her back after months.
