Cung Le tritt zurueck

[Nefercheperur]

Cung Le gab nun bekannt das er mit 42 Jahren vom MMA zuruecktreten wird. Le will sich auf seine Schauspielkarriere konzentrieren.

Er hat einen MMA Record von 9-3-0 und einen UFC Record von 2-2-0. Zuletzt verlor er gegen Michael Bisping durch TKO, zudem wurde er noch positiv getestet. Danach gab es jedoch Kritik an seiner Suspendierung, die dann auch aufgehoben wurde, weil Le die Testmethoden des Labors in Zweifel zog.

Le gab folgendes Statement bekannt zu seinem Ruecktritt:

After several months of thought and discussion with my wife and family we realize our future includes many things, but active competition in mixed martial arts is no longer one of them therefore I am officially announcing my retirement from active competition. Fighting will never be far from my heart and martial arts will always continue to be a part of my daily life. I have thoroughly enjoyed the career that I have been blessed with due in large part to all my fans and the many people who have helped me on my journey.

I want to personally thank my wife, Suzanne, my three Little Ninjas, my Mother, Sister and the rest of my incredible family for their support, prayers and inspiration. I’d like to take this opportunity to personally thank Scott Coker for his long-time friendship and support of my career, Gary Ibarra for your tenacity, to Khoa Do for everything, Scott Sheeley, you know, and to Jane Estioko, thank you for your loyalty. I’d also like to thank all of my past and present USH Team Family members, I am grateful for every round.

I’d like to recognize the UFC for the opportunity they have provided me, the sport of mixed martial arts, and more importantly the fans who love it, you will never be far from my heart. It has truly been my honor and my privilege to entertain you.
