Deleted from UFC.com - Rafaello Oliveira, Ronny Markes, Thiago Perpétuo. No real surprises.

Markes missed weight by so much, then got TKO'd in the 1st rd. He deserved to get cut.

Surprised to not see Josh Thomson cut. A top 10 guy in his class? That seems like the UFCs usual target.

Cutting Josh Thompson would be a travesty.

my money's on Brenneman being next (again).

He's 4-5 in the UFC. 0-1 since his return, and no one seems to care about him or even want to watch his "fights".
In a division as stacked as 155 is, why even keep him around?

Because

...Brenneman took his last fight on basically no notice. He almost certainly get one more shot. Others I do expect to see cut soon include Jared Hamman ,Trevor Smith, Renee Forte, Dustin Pague, and Nam Phan.

Thiago Perpetuo, man this guy had some good talent on TUF Brasil 1. He was delayed for over a year because of an injury. I hate to see that.

@dbt I think Pague has already been cut because he is listed as headlining a small show in my city in July. 

edit- Tap already has it listed, yeah he's cut

Knew Markes was cut. I don't like when someone gets fired, but, he's so boring. 

The UFC keeps so many tomato cans like Pague, Leonard Garcia and Hamman for so long and they leave out big talent because they're cheap. Look at TUF talent for crying out loud, they don't give a crap about talent on that show. They've denied later UFC champs for TUF.
