Hey guys, I've just realised I haven't heard Paul Sass get mentioned for a while, looked him up and found out he got cut and is now in Bellator?
Does anyone know why he got cut? He was 13-0 with 12 subs before he lost a couple, and 3-2 in the UFC with 3 finishes. I didn't see the Castillo fight, was it a shocker? I thought this guy was going to be a prospect.
 
Dana: We are looking guys that can go in the top 5, not the other way around
 
he got his sass handed to him by matt wiman
 
Usually when people are asking about what happened to somebody their is no use in investigating because, they gone
 
was a weird cut for sure. i think since he didnt sub castilo the ufc didnt want another bjj artist that takes fights to the mat, but cant sub high lvl opponents making it a boring lay fest if he cant get the sub.


Even maia got criticism from the ufc so someone like sass maybe at teh time wasnt worth it
 
Matt Wiman was a legit guy, there's no shame in losing to someone like that. I thought the UFC were trying to push any potential UK guys, and they're cutting a guy that's 14-2 with 13 finishes? Just seemed really strange to me, I wondered if there was more to it
