UFC lightweight Al Iaquinta has not been shy about sharing his displeasure with the UFC.
On Thursday, Iaquinta sent out a tweet asking to be released from the promotion.
“Cut me you sissys,” Iaquinta tweeted at the UFC.
Iaquinta is currently one of the top lightweight fighters in the UFC. He is currently ranked no. 11 in the official UFC lightweight rankings.
In April, Iaquinta returned to the UFC after being absent from the sport for two years. He knocked out former title challenger Diego Sanchez at a UFC Fight Night event in Nashville, Tennessee.
Iaquinta’s long layoff was originally caused by a knee injury. However, after his injury had healed, he then began having contract issues with the UFC and was not happy about the money he was being offered.
Eventually, Iaquinta agreed to return to the UFC but he is still clearly upset with the organization.
@UFC cut me you sissys
