UFC releases Michael Graves after 2016 domestic violence arrest
UFC officials announced Monday that welterweight Michael Graves (6-0-1) has been published from the promotion after being arrested in October 2016 for domestic violence. Here’s an official announcement from the UFC:
Back in November 2016, welterweight Michael Graves was removed from his UFC bout following his arrest in Fulton County, Florida. As a potential violation of this UFC Fighter Conduct Policy, the UFC organization temporarily barred Graves from competition pending the conclusion of a third party evaluation. Based on the findings of this thorough inspection and analysis, UFC has advised Graves he has been released from his contract effective immediately. UFC needs all athletes to act in an ethical and responsible manner, as mandated by the UFC Fighter Conduct Policy. UFC holds its athletes to the maximum standard and will continue to take proper action when and if justified.
