Let’s predict who is gonna get cut

I guess it's a balance between record, costs and popularity.

Rachael Ostovich is cheap, $12k to show, has a terrible record, fun fights and 750k IG followers. So do you cut her or Chookagian, $70k to show, excellent record, a decisionator whose only purpose now is to stymie potential title fights?
Chookagian Record is good so no need of Cutting her
 
Gerald Meershart
Matt Wiman
Ilir Latifi
Possibly Oezdemir since he can't make it into the US anymore
Jim Miller
Yancy Mederios
John Makdessi
Stefan Struve
Zubaira Tukhugov (khabibs gonna refuse to come back and will find out soon that Dana doesn't do friends)
 
MAKE SOME ACTUAL GUESSES!!!! GIVE SPECIFIC NAMES!!!


Dana says 60 people are getting cut

Let’s get all of the “cut WMMA jokes/comments” out of the way quickly so we can have a real discussion

Who are the likely victims?

Cowboy
Mike Perry
Woodley
Jessica Eye
Shogun?
Marion Reneau?
Andrea Lee
Ashlee Evan Smith
Diego Sanchez
EDIT: Almost forgot Robbie Lawler

Who jumps out to you?
Du Bronx has only 2 fights left on his contract and is asking for more money. If Tony beats him badly then expect him to be cut.
 
Jacare is gone with a loss. So is Marion Reneau. The loser of Matt Brown vs Carlos Condit might be gone. I think Cowboy is safe, as is Diego, Dana likes them. I'd be nervous if I was Mike Perry or Tyron Woodley, Perrys age and fan friendly style might save him. Any vet that Dana doesn't like who isn't an immediate contender is on notice. This is why they cut one of the GOATs in Anderson and why they shamelessly cut a guy who is still very elite in Romero, if a round went the other way he'd have been the MW champ right now. It's all about saving every penny and nickle, the legitimacy of the organization means nothing at this point. The good thing is, there are some solid vets that will be able to be picked up. Romero is far from washed and you can easily sell a fight with him vs Mousasi as a battle for the best in the world.
 
Loser of Condit vs Brown, unfortunately.

Don't put it past these shameless pieces of shit to cut Tony if Olivera pulls the upset either.
 
I dont think they would cut aldo hes had a lot of close fights
 
I hope so because he looks terrible in his last 3 fights and he was never the same after the Usman fight

I think Woodley deserves a lower ranked opponent like Weidman finally got. But if he loses then yeah he should be cut.
 
The only hope for HW are three guys Gane,Aspinall and Juan Espino
You forgot Alexandr Romanov whose grappling Is awesome (first forearm choke in UFC history I believe). He's the guy that always bodyslams his coaches after he wins
I want to see Espino fight again for sure but he's really old already, not really a prospect imo
 
I doubt Stephens get cut for those predicting him. Everyone he's lost to is in the top 6 and he's a company guy who'll take a fight against anyone.
 
Hopefully Ostovich. I prefer watching people with, you know, real looking faces.
 
Should be: WMMA and flyweight
Will be: older vets with quality name recognition

UFC is dying

Islam. I think he's in a desperate situation to a point where Khabib and Ali went around interviews to bait Tony to fight him. It was a scumbag move because Khabib never had any intention to fight Tony even if he beat Islam.

To anyone who says Islam has six fight winning streak, don't you remember they were trying to cut Colby too despite all his wins?

Islam has got 2.4 million followers and he’s under 30. He is safe. I guarantee that
