It looks like the UFC is cutting a swath through their featherweight division with the release of 3 145 lb fighters and Pancrase star Rin Nakai.
Rough time to be a UFC featherweight, it appears. The UFC roster is going through a bit of a contraction phase. Lots of talent going out, not much going in. And the latest fighters that appear to be on their way out come from the sub-155 divisions as three featherweights and a women's bantamweight have all apparently been given the chop.
UFCFIGHTERSINFO posted the removal of two names from the UFC's online roster last week, Julian Erosa and Mark Eddiva.
