Terry Martin Released From The UFC?
Mmamania.com posted a story announcing a David Loisseau vs. Terry Martin fight at the Combat Fighting Championships in May. They're not sure if this means that Terry Martin was released or if they granted him a temporary leave. I realize that he's lost two fights in a row, but I was shocked to read that he was potentially released. As we all know, the UFC's MW division is rather thin and releasing Martin seems a bit unfortunate.

Looks like Zuffa is back to the 'two and out' system. Shame.

Well looked horrible vs Eastman, after that KOTC level slugfest vs Leben. Hes got heavy hands and a ton of potential but he just seems to gas to much.
Not a big loss, but if he gets a few wins im sure he will be back

You would think it would be a slugfest but it was a slow plodding out both guys are afraid to get off kind of fight. Absolutely attrocious

Too be fair this is his second time losing 2 in a row in the UFC. He lost to Irvin by KO then Lambert by TKO and they gave him another shot in MW.

he's out of his league fighting at MW anyway. Maybe he can drop 15 pounds so he won't gas too quickly. No real loss here

nah losing a fighter is always a loss, but Terry Martin needs some time to kinda grow a little so its a good opportunity for him

I don’t like the attitude of some of the fans who always like to complain. When they say if you had a quick fight that they wished it was longer and if you have a long fight they say you should have beaten this guy quicker. Some people you just can’t please. If it is so easy, they can put on a glove and do it themselves. I’ll watch them fight.

WTF!? I don't even like Martin and I can see that that's a terrible decision. I know he's lost 2 in a row for the second time now, but seriously... how much more can you take away from the MW division in its current state?

If he was able to drop to welterweight he would make a huge impact IMO. He is just a fatboy though. He gasses so fast.
