Maycee Barber releases first statement after late withdrawal from UFC Vegas 107 main event: ‘My life is not messy’

Maycee Barber has damaged her silence following her late withdrawal from the UFC Vegas 107 fundamental occasion.

Barber was slated to face Erin Blanchfield in Saturday’s Battle Evening headliner on the UFC APEX. The promo video for the combat completed airing, which might usually result in the primary fighter strolling to the octagon. As an alternative, commentators Brendan Fitzgerald, Daniel Cormier and Laura Sanko revealed that Barber was about to make her stroll earlier than turning round and heading again to the locker room space.

After a industrial break, Fitzgerald introduced {that a} late “medical challenge” for Barber scratched her from the combat altogether — resulting in some harsh phrases from Blanchfield, saying Barber is “a whole mess in each facet of her whole life.”

On Sunday, Barber launched a press release on Instagram, though specifics weren’t given as to why she wasn’t medically cleared to compete, together with a little bit of a response to Blanchfield.

“Not what I had deliberate for a Sunday put up,” Barber wrote. “Thanks to everybody for the prayers and assist. I owe an apology to UFC, [Mick Maynard, Dana White, Sean Shelby, and Erin Blanchfield].

“P.S.: My life shouldn’t be messy that is only a dangerous hand. We’ll resolve all of it and be again.”

The “messy” remark is in direct response to Blanchfield’s criticism aimed toward Barber after the combat was cancelled when she stated the 27-year-old flyweight was a “full mess in each facet of her whole life.”

Barber was scheduled to make her first look in 14 months following well being points that had her hospitalized for a number of days following her UFC 299 win over Katlyn Cerminara. “The Future” advised MMA Preventing that she wasn’t given any actual solutions from medical doctors with regard to what the problems had been.
