UFC parts ways with 12 fighters

The UFC roster has been trimmed as a dozen fighters have parted ways with the promotion in the past three days.

The top flyweight contender Askar Askarov is the top name that cut ties with UFC.

This past weekend, Askarov announced on Instagram that he had requested a release to address health concerns.

Askarov compiled a 3-1-1 record in the UFC, with notable wins over four-time UFC title challenger Joseph Benavidez and ranked opponents Alexandre Pantoja and Tim Elliott. He also battled current interim flyweight champion Brandon Moreno to a split draw in Askarov’s UFC debut in September 2019. The 30-year-old Russian suffered his first defeat this past March when he lost a unanimous decision to Kai Kara-France.
