Twitter account UFC Roster Watch initially brought word that Jessica-Rose Clark, Chase Sherman and Ji Yeon Kim are no longer on the roster, and the news was later confirmed by MMAFighting.com. It is unclear if the athletes were released from their contracts or simply not re-signed. All three suffered defeats at UFC on ABC 4 in Charlotte.
Clark fell to Tainara Lisboa via third-round submission in the card’s opening bout. It was the third straight loss in UFC competition for the bantamweight known as “Jessy Jess.” The 35-year-old Australian went 4-5 during her promotional tenure.
Sherman, meanwhile, went 4-11 over two separate UFC stints. “The Vanilla Gorilla” lost six of his last seven Octagon appearances, including a decision setback against Karl Williams at UFC Charlotte on Saturday.
Finally, Kim exits the promotion following a controversial technical split decision defeat to Mandy Bohm. The 33-year-old South Korean compiled a 3-7 mark in the UFC, dropping her last five outings within the organization.
