UFC cuts..

[beenKOed]

Dan Hardy and Leonard Garcia are guy's the UFC know will put on a show which makes them worth the money they pay them because they get it back. Fitch isn't necessarily worth there money but none the less a top ten fighter.

True but the Dana always brags that the UFC is the pinnacle where the best fight the best, and always impliments a certain "standard of quality", where if guys are on a rough skid they get cut and work their way back up. When you keep guys like Hardy and Leonard after 4 losses and cut a guy like Fitch after going 1-2 against TOP level guys, it kind of shatters that illusion.

You're probably right though, more likely a case of the previous bad blood with Fitch/AKA and the fact that he is a boring-ass fighter.

They'll hook up somewhere, maybe with Bellator. The UFC might not want them but that doesn't mean they aren't among the best.

Dana said that Fitch was at the back end of his career and cost them a fortune. He said the UFC has 470 fighters on the roster and thats about 100 too many so expect more cuts soon guys.

Personally I like the UFC's cutting. Sure it sucks for the fighters at the time, but it gives them a chance to hit the smaller shows and build up their confidence and skill set. Some guys just aren't ready for the big show yet, and can benefit from the additional seasoning they'll acquire fighting on smaller shows.

This probably applies for most of the fighters but not Fitch a top ten guy. It's all business I guess.

Bellators CEO said they aren't signing Fitch.

WSOF or ONE FC it is then. My guess is WSOF.

White said it was salary thing with Fitch, maybe Fitch is pricing himself out of a job.
