While UFC reinstated Travis Browne this week, claiming that they found “inconclusive evidence” during their investigation of a domestic abuse claim by his wife, Jenna Renee Webb. While Browne is now free to return to the Octagon, Webb has made it clear that she is not done pursuing this situation.
Webb initially claimed that she would not be pressing charges when the allegations first came up last month, however following rumors of an affair with UFC mega-star Ronda Rousey and UFC’s inconclusive investigation into the domestic abuse matter, she is now singing a different tune.
“I told them the truth, I gave them photos, I gave them a dated and detailed journal, and how they came up with those results is beyond belief,” Webb told WomensMMA.com. “The investigator got this info and helped the UFC come to this conclusion. My family and I are totally baffled. It just shows what an abused person from a close family in Florida faces when they go up against an ex-FBI investigator, Campbell & Williams, and the UFC. They have more money than we do. They appear to be the winners. We believe that in the end truth prevails.”
Webb continued, “At the present time, I feel that the truth hasn’t come out and I have no other option than to press charges with the same evidence that was provided, and we’ll let the state of California decide whether I suffered from domestic violence.”
Meanwhile, “Hapa” Browne told MMAFighting.com the following soon after the news broke that UFC was lifting his suspension after their investigation.
“I’d like to first thank my family, friends, fans and team for the overwhelming support they have shown me during this challenging time,” said Browne. “This two-month period has taught me that strength truly does come from within. Sometimes saying nothing, requires more strength than saying everything. I made a conscious choice to keep quiet, comply and put my faith in the organization that has provided an amazing life for me and my family (UFC). They were forthright and honest from the beginning in stating that they took these allegations extremely seriously and were on a mission to get to the truth.”
Browne continued, “I am so excited that this investigation has concluded and that i have the privilege to get back in the cage and do what i was put on this earth to do. In closing, my children are my life, they are my heart, they are my soul. Kaleo and Keawe have been taught to show women the utmost respect and that gift of parenting with a purpose is something that i can hold my head high and continue doing with pride.
