Another one bites the dust. The UFC has been purging their roster to a great degree over the last few days and weeks, and it looks like one of the top flyweights on the roster is on his way out of the organization as well.

It had been rumored that Kyoji Horiguchi’s contract was up, and that turned out to be true. Now FloCombat is reporting that the UFC did offer him a new contract, but he wasn’t happy with the terms and turned it down.

The 26-year-old Horiguchi (18-2, 7-1 UFC) was ranked third at 125 pounds in the most recent UFC rankings, but has since been removed from the category.
