Report: Former title challenger Evinger, Taisumov among 13 fighters removed from UFC roster

It looks like the UFC roster has been trimmed again. According to a report from Tom Feely, 13 fighters have been removed from the UFC’s official website. This typically signals a release from the promotion, or in some cases, the fighter’s contract expiring.

The two biggest names on there are former Invicta champion and UFC title challenger Tonya Evinger, along with talented lightweight Mairbek Taisumov.

The rest of the fighters removed from the roster are as follows: Dong Hyun Ma, Chance Rencountre, Matthew Lopez, Cyril Asker, Khalid Murtazaliev, Talita Bernardo, Jodie Esquibel, Kyle Prepolec, Marcos Mariano, Isabela de Padua, and Zhenhong Lu.
