Dana White had confirmed that 60 UFC stars could be part of the roster cuts soon

The end of 2020 doesn’t seem to be all that great for some of the UFC stars. Dana White, the UFC president, confirmed that 60 stars would be cut from the roster come the end of the year.

These roster cuts had started a while back with some shocking decisions from the UFC. Anderson Silva was made to leave but the big one came recently with Yoel Romero getting the boot.

The Soldier of God had lost a few fights recently but he was still one of the big names. His age was a factor that White brought up and also his losing record.
