Jacob Volkmann will correct you if you say he got released from the UFC. To him, there’s no mistaking what happened after his eighth fight in the octagon, which resulted in a submission loss to Bobby Green at UFC 156. “I got fired,” he told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio). Volkmann (15-4), who fights Lyle Beerbohm (21-2) on Friday at World Series of Fighting 3 in Las Vegas, said he was sick the week of the Green fight and had to take medication to make it into the octagon. He did, but his typically steady endurance failed him in the later rounds of the fight
