Khama Worthy, former Invicta FC champion Livinha Souza released from the UFC

The UFC has parted ways with two more fighters.

Lightweight Khama Worthy, who burst onto the scene with a surprise win in his UFC debut, announced on Instagram that he’s no longer with the promotion after suffering three consecutive defeats.

“I just got word from my management team that I’ve been cut from the UFC. I just wanted to thank the @ufc and @danawhite for the amazing opportunity!” Worthy wrote.

Worthy (16-9) signed with the UFC in 2019 on short notice to take on prospect Devonte Smith. The Pittsburgh native defied the long odds and knocked out Smith in the opening round, taking a Performance of the Night bonus in the process.
