UFC Fighter's who failed in the UFC then went on Absolute Tears

Kyoji Horiguchi.

After losing to Mighty Mouse, he won 13 fights in a row and became the RIZIN and Bellator champion.
 
Not really failure but Gooch leaving the UFC was probably best for him. He became a superstar in Japan.

Hendo left the UFC a few times to chase money. His biggest successes were outside of the UFC. Hendo used to be very highly regarded in this forum when he moved up in weight classes and took out Fedor.
 
I wonder how many of these career resurgences (is that a word? The right word? I guess it is) are more or less attributed to roids

Best one is probably Ubereem. He is a totally different person when he is on. He couldn't even pass old school NSAC testing.
 
Great choices. I would say though, Mitrione didn't do bad at all in the UFC, KO'd Black Beast, De Fries, etc. he had that mini 4 - 0 streak in Bellator then lost every other fight there. His KO over Fedor where they both dropped eachother, just Matt popped up first to the feet to finish, was great though.

Mitrione turned out to be a bum too though, going winless in 5 straight.
