UFC Seattle fighter Bruna Brasil found out she was cut from the roster via fan comments

Bruna Brasil seemingly wasn’t told by the UFC that she’d been cut from the roster. Last weekend’s UFC Seattle card featured several departures following what many consider to be the best event of the year so far. Michael Chiesa called time on his career at the perfect moment, going out in front of his home fans while riding a four-fight win streak off into the sunset. While his opponent, Niko Price, wasn’t happy with his send-off, at least he knew when his UFC career was ending. On Wednesday, three fighters were cut from the UFC roster, including one athlete who opened the show at the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle. Bruna Brasil went 3-5 inside the Octagon, beating the likes of Molly McCann before consecutive losses brought her run in the promotion to an end. Under a recent Instagram post from the Brazilian, a fan commented that she’d been released following her recent outing. Brasil’s reply of “Really?” suggests that she wasn’t told about her release, despite having competed less than a week ago. The 32-year-old member of the Fighting Nerds suffered a unanimous decision loss to Alexia Thainara last weekend, who she beat back in 2019. Brasil’s record now stands at 11-7-1 after she won her UFC contract with a head kick finish on Dana White’s Contender Series back in 2022. Luana Carolina and Antonio Trocoli were also let go by the promotion in the same update. More must-reads: Get the latest news and rumors, customized to your favorite sports and teams. Emailed daily.
