Joey Beltran has been released from the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) roster following his loss to Lavar Johnson at UFC on Fox 2 this past weekend (Jan. 28, 2012) in Chicago, Illinois. The loss marked his second in a row and his fourth in his last five fights.
Following former PRIDE fighter Mauricio "Shogun" Rua's impressive knockout victory over Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida on Saturday night at UFC 113, much of the discussion within the MMA community has focused heavily on the outlook of the UFC's light heavyweight division. As expected, Dana White confirmed that Quinton "Rampage" Jackson vs. Rashad Evans at UFC 114 will determine the next challenger to the light heavyweight crown.
