UFC President Dana White comments on the release of Jon Fitch as well as others from American Kickboxing Academy from the UFC at Yahoosports.com:

“We’re looking for guys who want to work with us and not against us, and frankly I’m just so [expletive] sick of this [expletive] it’s not even funny. Affliction is still out there trying to build its company. Let [Fitch] go work with them. Let him see what he thinks of those [expletives]. [Expletive] him. These guys aren’t partners with us. [Expletive] them. All of them, every last [expletive] one of them…. I’m not a douche bag and I do a lot for these guys, a lot more than any of you will ever know. We’re in a horrible time in the economy now, and every guy with two nickels to rub together is making a run at us. We’ve worked too hard, given too much, to let certain guys come in and [expletive] with that.”

This story is really starting to heat up. It appears things run much deeper than not wanting to sign video game rights over. No one from AKA has commented yet but that can be expected shortly.
