Guess they really need to make some room, I'm surprised by Fitch being cut most of all. I think Che Mills and Terry Etim should probably have got another shot as well.

Only one I'm particularly bummed about is Sass.

What the **** is this ****? Fitch, Mills, Sass, Etim, Santiago (who looked very decent at 170) I call complete and utter ********.

I bet Bill's head explodes when he sees this.

Wow Volkmann ,Sass and Fitch gone ? I know they are all one dimentinal but they are pretty damn good at it .
Heiron is a bit of a surprise too he was feed to the wolves . looked pretty decent against Ellenburger. Santiago was feed to the wolves too but he didnt look impressive at all. Im ok with the rest.

Wagner Prado, ok
Mike Russow, fine
Jacob Volkmann, crappy deal for him
Vladimir Matyushenko, hopefully retires, had a great career
Che Mills, surprising cut, UK fighters usually get several chances
Jay Hieron, breaks my heart, but understandable
Terry Etim, Another UK fighter
Paul Sass, Another UK fighter, I assume they are making room for TUF UK guys?
Jorge Santiago, He should get another chance after taking the Gunnar fight on short notice
Mike Stumpf, 2 losses in a row to mid-level guys
Simeon Thoresen, Not ready for the UFC yet
C.J. Keith, 2 losses in a row to mid tier guys
Motonobu Tezuka, I thought Tezuka has a good fight and showed good wrestling
Josh Grispi I think we all saw this coming
Ulysses Gomez  The UFC shouldn't cut any 125ers in my opinion, the divion is alreadt super thin

Volkmann and Fitch being cut is going to send a message to anyone trying to win via points and positional control, and I'm ok with that.

Ulysses Gomez ‏@uselessgomez

Sorry guys no idea on my status with the UFC yet. I haven't talked to my manager, so maybe they told him before the report came out.
