Valerie Letourneau looked particularly uncomfortable during some of the exchanges with Joanne Calderwood at Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 89. Today, she took to social media to reveal why.

In a Facebook post, Letourneau explained that she wasn’t complaining about chest strikes – which she understands are legal and has no problem with – but yet was struggling with her sports bra. She went on to say she was “insulted” with remarks made by commentators, who she thinks were mocking her.

The fighter ended the statement by extending a question to her male peers: ”Would you be able to keep fighting without being distracted if one of your nuts was slipping out of your shorts?”

UFC Fight Night 89 took place at The Arena at TD Place in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It aired on FOX Sports 1 following prelims on FOX Sports 2 and UFC Fight Pass. Letourneau (8-5 MMA, 3-2 UFC) was knocked out by Calderwood (11-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) in the third round of the UFC’s first women’s flyweight bout.

Read Letourneau’s full statement below.

“I want to clarify something, my daughter told me what the commentators were saying during the fight, and I felt insulted.

I have been practicing martial arts for 17 years, so I have no problem taking hits to the chest. It is the rule, and it isn’t worse than a low kick! My only problem during the fight is that my bra literally slipped under my breasts. This is why I stared, embarrassed, at the referee, and I have no idea what Jojo told me, but I had to keep fighting. It seems that I was being mocked because I seemed to be complaining of blows to the breast. I think that I have nothing to prove regarding the numbers of hits I can take without complaining.

Guys, would you be able to keep fighting without being distracted if one of your nuts was slipping out of your shorts?

Anyway, it does not excuse my defeat, but I wanted to clarify this part of the fight!”

It’s not the first time a fighter had to deal with a wardrobe malfunction in the octagon. Current bantamweight champ Miesha Tate spoke about the problem in the past, saying she “doubled up” on a Reebok sports bra after hearing about fellow fighter Elizabeth Phillips’ problem. Tate then said: ‘You don’t want to have to worry about that kind of stuff in the middle of a fight.’
