When does the UFC cut Travis Browne he's 1-5 now

He's with Rousey, so long as Rousey doesn't officially retire they won't cut Browne.
 
1. He can still use the "Rhonda Rousey card" (Rousey has 3,4 million followers). As long as he has her he can gain/reach many potential ppv buyers or/and TV-viewers.

2. HW division will lose more of the known fighters then they will able to sign/promote the coming years, the division is not Stacked!

3. He is controversial and entertaining to watch, If you doubt this go and watch:

Browne vs Arlovski

Browne vs Overeem

Browne vs Struve

If Travis wanted go in a "BAD-guy" role in the purpose to get people to hate him it would be said and done.

4. There is significant room for improvement since he is still with one of the least talanted coaches in the mma-game: Edmond Tarverdyan. For the last camp he used other trainers and looked much better then the last 3 fights where Tarverdyan coached him
 
Travis can still beat up some non ranked HW fighters and get a winning streak going
 
He's entering Jessica Eye territory, merely a punching bag and with a similar record of late.

Give someone with a similar ranking position that Travis had 1-2 years ago Cain and Werdum as opponents and see what record they come out of those 2? I'll bet you most people would choose another path to the top then to face any of those monsters, Travis is not known to be duckin people, which is a credential Werdum, Rothwell & Overeem can use, all 3 have a history of duckin top ranked fighters
 
Gotta keep him around . Can't have Cain Velasquez only win in the last few years Be a guy who got cut lol
Cain Velasquez has a record of being inactive because of injury, the probability of this happening again is large, the UFC will not promote Cain to become a champ no more, to massive of a risk for a pull-out.
 
2-4 in his last six actually. And fought Cain and Werdum before his loss to the Beast. He isn't fighting scrubs.

Of course that doesn't mean shit for WME anyways..

To be fair, Travis Browne is a stat padder for potential champions in the division. Jessica Eyes best loss to date is Miesha Tate, if that makes any sense. 9/10 of her opponents won't ever be championship material.
 
also lets not forget he's mr. Rousey's so Dana will appease her by keeping him around.
Dana yes but the decision is WME who let go of his buddies Liddell and Hughes
 
How is Browne a gatekeeper when he never fought for a title, More of journeyman than anything
Gatekeeper does not require a title shot. It only requires that you've fought with many of the top contenders & lost... but you continually win against the lower competition. It's someone who hoverz around the middle to end of the top 10... but strugglez to get into & maintain a top 5 position. There are several gatekeepers in any division... & those beyond the gate continually keep them in their place while those below him also keep him hovering above them.

Black Beast Beat a gatekeeper (3 now actually) & so now he proceeds beyond the gate to the upper part of the division. imo

The number of times he been put out cold lately should make him seriously consider retirement... especially considering his significant other has made enough for them to both retire comfortably and she is calling out to him to have his babies
Only Black Beast put him out cold. Arlovski was a standing TKO. Cain was GNP TKO.
 
Seriously he's lost four of his last 5 fights!!

what gives?

Maybe give Barnett a chance to avenge his loss?

Since when did being a gatekeeper mean you have to have fought for a title? Browne's a gatekeeper because beating him means you're top ten, losing to him means you're not. He's the gatekeeper for the top ten of the division.
 
Hope he gets sent to Bellator, and Meathead gets his revenge for Browneye skewering his retina clear out da socket

I have seen a mans brain been shot out his head and people hit by cars and that doesn't bother me. This does...must be something about dealing with eyes. They're too squishy.
