Report: Four More Fighters Released By The UFC | UFC NEWS
Yesterday we announced that, “The Spaniard”, Charlie Brenneman had been released by the UFC following his second straight defeat. As luck would have it, the welterweight was not the only one who received their pink slip from the UFC yesterday.
According to a report by FighterOnly, four more UFC fighters received their releases following recent defeats.
Here is the report:

Reports of his departure were followed shortly afterwards by a report from MMA Opinion, which said another four fighters had been cut.
They are Eiji Mitsuoka (0-2 in the UFC), Michihiro Omigawa (1-6), Tommy Hayden (0-2) and Walel Watson (0-2).
The UFC has not made the cuts public or official, in keeping with its policy, but the names have been removed from UFC.com

HAHAHAHAHA charlie brenneman is out. I never liked the guy. He spoke crap about Jones and now he’s gone.
Look at u all over jone’s ****!
not sure about omigawa, think he should be given a chance, but the rest can go
1 win in 5 ufc fights sounds like they did give him a chance to me…the biggest chance of all these guys actually.
…and add 2 more losses in the ufc if you go back to 07 / 08.
done.
That’s a lie! When they let Kimbo Slice go it was all over the news
DeMarques Johnsons still contracted? Why?
My thoughts exactly. How the heck is his contract still not cut yet.
Probably bc his loss v swick was a short notice fight and he has a bunch of post fight awards.
Damn. Would’ve liked for Mitsuoka to have stayed for a while.
0-2 umm that doesn’t seem like a good enough reason to kick some of those fighters out. Now, 1-6 damn!
i am tired of seeing these so called fighters talk all this crap and then not show up for the fight. I am sorry but u train ur a!@ off for months and then u do come to fight, u should be cut. Those who fight a good fight and lose, should stay. Bye bye rampage, u talk to much.
