Not what I had planned for a Sunday post. Thank you to everyone for the prayers and support. I owe an apology to UFC, [UFC matchmaker] Mick Maynard, Dana White, [UFC matchmaker] Sean Shelby and Erin Blanchfield. P.S: My life is not messy; this is just a bad hand. We will get to the bottom of it all and be back.
