A not so happy holidays to the UFC fighters who are finding themselves looking for a new promotion to start 2016.

The world of prize fighting can be a hard, cold place. And nowhere is that more readily apparent than when it comes time for another round of UFC roster trimming. The world's largest fight promotion appears to be taking the ax to their collected talent once again with a reported five more fighters seeing the chopping block alongside the already reported Fabio Maldonado. MMAFighting has learned that Bubba Bush, Mickael Lebout, Kevin Souza, Chico Camus, and Ericka Almeida have all been released from their UFC contracts.
