Rumored Did 'Boom' Kelleher Just Get Released?

He's on the roster because of his trash talking and if you don't agree, you're doing it wrong.
I’d say he’s on the roster because he agrees to fight often and wins enough to stay around.

He's on the roster because he's never lost more than 2 fights in a row. Kelleher was on a 4 fight losing streak. That would get anyone cut unless your name is Sam Alvey or Jessica Eye.
 
Again, unsurprising, he was on a big skid and has been around for a long time.
 
He had a very good run for a guy who was essentially a high level regional journeyman who got signed relatively late in his career. Definitely made the most of his chance. I was shocked when he gillied Alcantara back in the day.

Looks shot since he had that neck surgery though.
 
No shame in those losses
I was gonna say, those are all pretty high profile fights. I hate when guys test themselves against the best, loose and get cut. Then Dana complains that guys don’t wanna to take tough fights, it’s because you’re creating an incentive to “career manage” like in boxing. A guy like Kelleher could be fed a couple of hyped up and comers to see what they’re made of, instead he gets cut and it’s all a waste.

Great summary to be fair, when they signed him I expected 0-2 and cut to be honest.
