Dana White and Co. Release Two Fighters Following UFC 321 Performances

The UFC quietly parted ways with Azat Maksum (15-3) and Hamdy Abdelwahab (7-1) after UFC 321, despite the latter winning. Maksum fell to Mitch Raposo and lost a point for a fence grab, ending his short (1-3) disappointing UFC stint. Abdelwahab defeated Chris Barnett by decision despite a broken hand. Reports suggest his release stemmed from internal or business reasons beyond in-cage performance.
