Tito Ortiz has decided to stop managing the career of Cris Cyborg, making his announcement on 'Inside MMA' on Friday night.

Here's the statement he provided AXS TV for his decision below:

"I can live with Dana not liking me but what I cant live with is Danausing me to hurt someone else. Ive taken abuse and maybe I deservedsome of it but Cris is a beautiful person and great athlete and doesntdeserve to be insulted like this.

I dont understand how Dana lets his hatred towards me hurt the UFC andthe fans by not making this fight.

He accuses her of still using banned substances and say that she isntworthy of fighting Ronda yet a year ago he personally called me to makethe fight happen.

I never said she would die if she made 135- we just repeated what the Drsaid that Cris shouldnt make a career at 135- we offered a 3 fight dealthey said no 7 fights or no deal.

Regardless I wont stand in the way from the fans getting a fight theywant and I wont hold Cris Back. So Im stepping down as Cris manager

Now he cant hold that against her-

Im also tired of Dana accusing Cris of using banned substances. Ichallenge you to put up or shut up- Test her or stop lying about her-Cris is a beautiful woman inside and out- dont insult her on her looks-she may be tough as nails but she still has feelings.

I know people are going to say there goes Tito making this about himagain- but its not -its about Cris Cyborg- the baddest woman on theearth soon to be multi-sport world champion."
