    Ouch for Kang, That guy was supposed to be a top MW, maybe Strikeforce signs him.

    Re: UFC cuts Denis Kang, Jason Dent, and Roli Delgado

    I'm a little surprised with Kang... I thought he might drop down to 170 and try his luck there. Maybe they want him to go get a win and come back? I dunno if they have cut him outright. In any case, he underwhelmed. Something was holding him back and I can only assume it was a mental barrier.

    It's funny about Kang - they hyped him up like he was one of the top middleweights in the world then cut him after only one fight. The UFC obviously didn't buy what they were selling!

    He was 1-2 in the UFC, that's a cut worthy record.

    Especially when the win was against another guy who was cut...

    Unsurprisingly, add Houston "The Assassin" Alexander to the list of cut fighters.

    Add Justin "The Bird" Wren to this list as well, though in his case the UFC wants him to go and get some experience.
