Everyone has a thought on the unceremonious exit of Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight Jailton Almeida.
The UFC’s release of Almeida set fire to the internet on Wednesday. After two lackluster fights, the top-10 UFC heavyweight was let go despite a promotional record of 8-3. The unexpected cut immediately reached the trending topics of MMA world with media, fans and fighters discussing the reason in a division where Tai Tuivasa suffered his sixth straight loss and still remains on the roster.
Some of performances rubbed the UFC brass the wrong way, namely when Almeida outgrappled Derrick Lewis in a dreadful five-rounder where he unleashed very little damaging offense.
