Snip Snip Snip

The following fighters recieved their walking papers from the UFC this week:

Jason Dent
Rolando 'Roli' Delgado
Dennis Kang
Houston Alexander
Justin Wren

Alexander- Obviously tough to see a guy like Houston let go, especially given the family situation (raising 6 kids as a single father). But you can't say he didn't have his chances... not too many fighters have gotten another fight after being on a 3 fight losing streak. Had he won against Kimbo, I would still imagine he would have been cut with one more loss.

Kang- we'll probably see him in Strikeforce/Dream. Not a total shock I guess, but would have thought he'd get one more chance.

Dent- A little surprising, especially considering that he put up some decent striking against a beast like Soteropolis. But you gotta prove yourself, especially when it's your second stint in the UFC.

Delgado- See ya.

Wren- Again, not shocked, but a young guy who could make a comeback with a few wins outside the UFC. I have to imagine that Marcus Jones will soon be walking right behind Justin, but maybe the UFC has some hope in the ratings he could draw being brought back for one more fight.
