Report: UFC releases Jorgensen, Roop, and Yui Chul

It looks like the UFC is cleaning some house in its lower weight classes, with the apparent release of Scott Jorgensen, George Roop, and "The Korean Bulldozer."

Back on January 29th, the UFC released a whole slew of fighters between their heavyweight and lightweight divisions. It looked, for the moment, as though the lighter weightclasses had been spared. It doesn't look that way now. While not an official announcement, the UFCFIGHTERSiNFO Twitter account, which monitors the UFC.com website and it's roster, has delivered the news that a few names from the lighter weight classes have been removed from the UFC's database.
