Dana White: Miguel Torres handled his business like a man, Torres rejoins UFC

Earlier this month former WEC Bantamweight Champion Miguel Torres posted the following on his twitter account:

“If a rape van was called a surprise van more women wouldn’t mind going for rides in them. Everyone likes surprises.”

The tweet, a line from the Comedy Central program, “Workaholics” earned him an abrupt release from the UFC.  Today it was announced that Torres had been reinstated to the UFC.

Somewhat fittingly the news of Torres rejoining the promotion came via twitter as Ariel Helwani posted the following, “Dana says Torres is back. Torres has donated money to local rape centers, visited them. Dana says Torres was very remorseful,” and “Dana says Torres handled his business like a man and no one told him to do it. Torres very emotional.”
