The Ultimate Fighting Championships has slimmed their roster as Igor Pokrajac, Tom Niinimaki, Sean Soriano, Mike Rhodes and Rodrigo Damm have been released by the promotion. Pokrajac had spent five years in the UFC, but he leaves the promotion in the midst of a five fight losing streak. Niinimaki has only won just one of four under the UFC banner and he exits the promotion on a three fight losing streak.

Soriano went winless under the UFC banner, having dropped three straight fights during his time in the promotion. Rhodes is another fighter who went winless in UFC competition, but he is a former Resurrection Fighting Alliance Welterweight Champion. Damm is exiting the UFC on a three fight losing streak, but he was a cast member of the UFC Ultimate Fighter: Brazil.
