Tyron Woodley no longer under contract with the UFC

Tyron Woodley is no longer a member of the UFC roster.

MMA Fighting confirmed with UFC officials that the former welterweight champion is a free agent following speculation on social media that Woodley had parted ways with the promotion. Woodley, 39, is no longer eligible to be voted for in the fan rankings and his profile on UFC.com reads “former fighter” under his name.

Woodley’s manager Malki Kawa also addressed the rumor on social media, clarifying that Woodley had indeed fought out his most recent contract and he was not cut by the UFC.
