Most notably, Couture put to rest the rumors that she met her husband while working as a stripper. Couture said she's never stripped. In fact, the former cop later worked as a casino food and beverage director and then as an executive casino host for Wynn Las Vegas. She had a very solid reputation within the hotel-casino industry.

So how did the rumors develop? Well, UFC welterweight Matt Hughes is at least partially to blame.

"When Hughes and (Rich) Franklin were on [The Ultimate Fighter 2], I had a surprise birthday party for Randy, and I invited everybody from the show because Randy was still doing a guest coaching appearance," Couture said. "Matt went around and told the whole (production) crew, 'I would never go. Randy was my hero, and he's no longer. I can't believe he's with a stripper or a hooker' or whatever. And I'm like, 'What's he talking about?' Well, time went by, and I hated the guy. I was like, 'This guy doesn't even know me. I don't know where he's getting this information from.' I've worked my ass off and had some very prestigious jobs.

"So, he kind of knew Randy wasn't talking to him at the events we'd go to. I wasn't talking to him and was like, 'Who does this guy think he is?' He came up to me at one of the (UFC) Fight Nights, and he said ... 'I'm Matt Hughes. I'm an asshole, and I owe you an apology.' And I'm like, 'Yeah, from what I hear, you're an asshole. I don't know where you get your information from.' And he says, 'Oh, I'm sorry. I don't know, but Randy won't talk to me, and I'm going to go apologize to him now. From everybody I talk to, you're really cool, and I just never gave you a chance, and I just didn't know where you came from.'"

Obviously, Couture was confused as to why Hughes would then work the prostitution angle if he didn't know anything about her.

"I'm like, 'So, you thought you'd make up that I was a stripper and a hooker and go tell 5,000 people?'" she said.

Couture said that Hughes then offered an apology -- and that she accepted. The relationship is good enough that they exchange pleasantries when running into each other at events, but she's still disappointed that so much damage has been done by Hughes.

"The unfortunate part is that all the people he said that to for two years don't know he's apologized," Couture said. "They're still going around thinking the information Matt Hughes gave them is correct."

Ill take Hughes over Yoko Couture.

Shit comment or not

I find it hilarious that Hughes is such a Christian boy and a bible beater but goes around judging people and making unwarranted assumptions about people he's never met. I think he's a great fighter but he needs a bit more consistency as to the kind of guy he is.

[JoeSons BruisedNuts]

lol......Hughes called her a hooker....not very Christian like

[Ifightforaliving]

everyone needs this book before dealing with hughesNo offense to any christians. It's just that Hughes gives you guys a bad name.

You know I can't stand Matt Hughes outside the octagon simply because he really is an asshole. He has demonstrated great leadership and talent when it comes to fighting, but has this reputation of being a total moron when it comes to voicing his opinion.

Anyone notice when you quote this guy, his "sig" shows up in the quote?

[Ifightforaliving]
