POST-UFC 214: ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) was back in Anaheim, CA for the seventh time in promotional history last Saturday (July 29, 2017) using UFC 214: Cormier vs. Jones II. It was an entertaining night of action that saw half the bouts end inside the space, and with all the scraps today in our rear view, let’s look at that of the day’s competitors we may no longer see going to work inside the Octagon…
ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK
Kailin Curran
A unanimous decision dropped to Aleksandra Albu at a very entertaining scrap. She’s now on a three-fight losing streak inside the Octagon, falling to 1-5 at the UFC. Following the defeat, despite setting up a solid hard work and winning the next and last round of this struggle, I think there’s a fantastic chance that the advertising releases her from her contract, considering I thought she’d certainly get discharged after her previous defeat. At this time, she is in what we call”Jessica Eye territory,” therefore it wouldn’t totally be a shock to see her receive a last opportunity to get a third time.
Josh Burkman
Burkman was knocked out against the Drew Dober of Colorado. The loss puts him on a four-fight losing streak from the UFC, the last two of which have come from first-round finish. He retired following his prior reduction, which was a first-round, north-south choke submission against Michel Prazeres, leaving his gloves at the Octagon. But he changed his mind and returned for the Dober bout. Whether he retires for good or not, I think it’s reasonable to say that we have seen the last of Burkman inside the Octagon, and that I don’t expect to find the Ultimate Fighter 2 veteran returning for a third stint with the promotion.
