10:29 AM ET 02.11 | When word came down that Junior Assuncao had been released by the UFC, many wondered if something backstage had happened. "Until this moment, I don't really know what happened. I guess they didn't like my last performance; maybe they expected more from the....I'm lost. Only my manager talked to them," Assuncao said. "According to my manager, UFC said there're 15 extra fighters in my division and that it would take seven months for them to offer me a fight, and then they cut me off. I haven't received a formal letter saying I'm dismissed; it was just my manager who told me. I don't know if there's something behind it."
