Well, an interesting development has happened. Cung Le has asked to be released from his UFC contract because of how he was treated during this issue. I am curious to see what happens. Will the UFC release him? Will he retire rather than continue there? If released, will he go to Bellator? http://mmajunkie.com/2014/12/in-wak...n-cung-le-requested-release-from-ufc-contract
They may have to for PR alone. Cung (despite being Vietnamese) is kinda their China Ambassador. So having a long drawn out legal battle will hurt their (UFC) rep more than anything else. Le did say in that article he doesn't plan on going to Bellator, but that is the logical step if he wants to fight.
