Latest Round of UFC Roster Cuts


It's been no secret that the UFC has been making a statement lately that 'any fighter that does not perform will not hold a place on their roster'. This statement has been followed by a series of high-to-low-profile roster cuts spanning almost every division. 

It goes without saying that the most criticized and controversial cut was perennial UFC welterweight contender Jon Fitch, following a unanimous decision loss to Demian Maia. Many debated that Fitch dug his own grave with his lacklustre fight style which was referred to as 'grapplehumping'. Another cut that was seemingly self-inflicted was French heavyweight Cheick Kongo who following a KO loss to Roy 'Big Country' Nelson was 1-2 in his last three bouts in the octagon.

Anyways, without further ado, here is the latest installment of fighters to be handed their marching orders within the UFC mass-layoff:
- Karlos Vemola
- Nah-shon Burrell
- Anthony Smith
- Eddie Mendez
- Roger Hollett
- Leandro Silva

Until next time,
Peace!
