Carmouche exemplifies this indefensible situation. “It’s a little bit insane that you would [do that],” she told MMA Junkie on Saturday of the UFC’s decision to release her while she did unpaid promotional work for the UFC last week.
“I took time off from work to be here at my own pocket expense. It’s a little bit sad. Then, two, that it would be done that way … I’m here with the UFC and you could have actually spoken to me firsthand … Especially during the holiday season.
“I have a 4-year-old at home. My wife is at home and I’d love to be spending it with them. Especially saving up as much money to spoil them for Christmas. To take a week off from that definitely sucks and is kind of a setback. And to be done this way is definitely not a great taste.”
