She was a good gatekeeper to keep around. I liked her. Maybe she'll beat some regional girl and get called back to the UFC on short notice.

Could easily happen
 
Fighters should not expect to finish their careers in the UFC,unless they are near the top,and/or make the decision themselves.

Not really a release. Contract was up and the ufc thought she wasnt worth resigning

That's even going too far. Maybe she wanted to fight somewhere else since she was struggling in the UFC. Maybe the UFC actually wanted to keep her, but offered her less money, the same money or even more money, but not enough more to make her want to stay. Maybe BKFC or somewhere else offered her more.
 
That’s actually quite surprising considering she’s a TUF darling, and Canadian. I wonder what the deal is where you get cut after a win?
 
Least she left on a win and completed contract. Prolly wanted to down sell her.

Sure we will see her elsewhere, not that I think she will do much other than gate...

Ultimate Fighter veteran Randa Markos is the latest fighter to exit the UFC roster after she completed her contract with the promotion.

UFC officials confirmed the news to MMA Fighting on Wednesday.

A veteran of 18 fights with the promotion, Markos was a stalwart of the strawweight division while facing a laundry list of top opponents over the years.

She made her octagon debut after competing on The Ultimate Fighter season 20, which crowned the first ever UFC strawweight champion.

During her run with the UFC, Markos earned wins over names such as former strawweight champion Carla Esparza, Angela Hill and Juliana Lima.

Markos had largely bounced back and forth between wins and losses throughout much of her UFC career until she recently suffered through a four-fight skid that included setbacks against Mackenzie Dern and Amanda Ribas.

Most recently, Markos returned to the win column with a decision victory over Livia Renata Souza, which brought her overall record to 11-11-1.

With her contract coming to an end with that fight, the UFC opted not to re-sign Markos but it’s always possible that she could rejoin the roster at a later date.

11-11 makes the other girls look good
 
I like Randa but it’s not surprising. If she had chalked up even a slightly better record, she’s probably still be a UFC fighter…

should be good when the simps leak her Onlyfans stuff tho.
 
At one point she looked like she could be good with her BJJ.
 
Feel a bit bad that she got cut after finally winning, but she could've been cut multiple times before that - that record is horrific for a UFC fighter.
 
Was she really 'released?'

By the article in the OP, her contract was completed. No one mentions if she wasn't offered an new contract or extension, or if she was offered and she refused to sign.
