Rumored Tecia Torres removed from UFC roster!?!

[tucan89]

I’ve seen this page before a few times there always pretty accurate. She just had a baby in June but last fought in April of 2022 on a split decision loss to Mackenzie Dern. Prior to that won 3 straight.

Released while on maternity leave or retirement?! I’ve always been a fan of hers

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

Yeah that’s surprising.

 

[Guy LeDouche]

Seems like the UFC is making cuts now that they are TKO, cheap labor incoming

 

[sonhow]

Maybe she just retired after the child was born?

 

[JarlSkuld]

She would likely have been the UFC's first atom weight division champ, if they had gotten their shit together.

Maybe she's planning on having another kid or just retiring.

Highly doubt they would have just let Tecia go for any other reason.

 

[Luthien]

She wasn't cut when being 1 - 4 in the UFC

Doubt they would have cut her now when things are going better!

Something amicable happened here I am certain. Another kid maybe!

Damn. Tiny Tornado always seemed like a sweet person, and she's a local girl (from Fall River). She is 34 but maybe after some time with the baby she'll resign. I enjoyed the submission dance for Tecia's arm she did with Mackenzie Dern in her last fight!

she had a baby

I doubt there is anything bad about this. Could be like Nina. She had one last fight after their daughter was born, and retired. Amanda also just retired.

At 34 with a new child. She probably just retired. It wouldn’t be surprising if she did. Children especially new babies are a lot of work. And your priorities often change overnight.

If she is retired I’m ok with that. I like her and Rocky a lot. I have nothing bad to say about either of them. The same with Nina, and Amanda. I like and respect all 4 of those ladies.

If Tecia is retired, I wish her and Rocky all the best. If Tecia returns in the spring like it says. Cool. If not. That’s cool too. I’ve enjoyed watching Tecia for a long time now. Maybe we’ll hear something very soon from Tecia/Rocky. Time will tell what happens next.

"You want more maternity leave out of me"

 

[Tweak896]

I respect it if she retired. It's pretty crazy to have a baby and at 34 still try and stay involved in the highest level of MMA, cuts into family time.

Bon Voyage Tiny Tornado !!

I agree with the other poster that suggested if Atom Weight ever existed in the UFC that she would have been the one.

Lots of scrappy ferocity.

Just to clear things up - Roster Watch tracks the active roster. Nothing concerning contracts, "cut", etc.

 

[Askafan]

It's a useful site but certainly not 100% accurate........ if a cut seems ridiculous, it probably is.

It's 100% accurate to UFC's website. It's, in fact, tied to it and automated.

"Torres, along with wife and former UFC title challenger Raquel Pennington, announced Thursday that she’s pregnant with the couple’s first baby due in June 2023."


How do two women have a baby.
