UFC bans fighter after backstage incident |
UFC president Dana White, who told the press that they are cutting Miller, did not elaborate on what the incident was but said that it was "nothing physical."
"Something happened here backstage after (his fight), and Mayhem's done. He's done," White said. "Just some bulls--t that I don't want to talk about. We're on a crazy string here of dumb bulls--t. Nothing physical. It doesn't matter. He's done. He's not with us anymore. (He would have) probably (been released anyway), but I really don't make those kinds of decisions."
Miller has an overall mixed martial arts record of 23 wins and 9 losses. Three of the 9 losses were from his 3 UFC fights.
Apart from being a mixed martial artist, Miller is also the host of MTV's "Bully Beatdown," a show that allows bullied teens to get their comeuppance against their tormentors via a trained fighter.
He is also set to star in the movie "Here Comes the Boom," which is set for October 2012 release. In the movie, he is playing the role of "Lucky," an MMA fighter who goes in the ring against Kevin James' character. Directed by Frank Coraci, the film also stars Salma Hayek, Charice, Henry Winkler, among others.
