It appears that the Ultimate Fighting Championship is parting ways with Demian Maia and Jimmie Rivera.
According to a report from MMAFighting.com, Maia, Rivera and Christian Aguilera are no longer under contract with the UFC. While Maia fought the last fight on his existing deal, it is unclear if Rivera and Aguilera completed their contracts or were released.
A title challenger at both middleweight and welterweight, Maia exits the organization on a two-bout losing streak. In his last outing, the Brazilian jiu-jitsu ace dropped a three-round verdict to Belal Muhammad at UFC 263.
