Fighters that just vanished

[ZaphMMA]

Last I heard, Amir Sadollah went back to his career in the medical field. It probably paid better anyway.

He came from one of my favorite TUF seasons, love to see an underdog win it all.

David Tarrell. Goran Reljic

There was a time when asking "where is Goran Reljic" would get you carded.

That and Rickson by armbar. Lol if you even hinted at a fighter on roids it was a perma ban.

Conor... remember he said he was going to fight 3 times this year after the Cerrone win.. havnt heard about him since. Injured or USADA?

COVID

 

[zuffazombee]

Everyone knows it now, but dude absolutely vanished and started working in a mine despite being next in line for a title shot.

It was common knowledge years ago.

 

[Kdup]

Tra Telligman after Timmeh kicked his head off.

Evan Tanner (don't hate me, bros, it's the interwebs)

I hate you, but where did he go? He must be thirsty for some action. (I’m kidding, don’t hate me bro)

 

[Max Power]

 

[blaseblah]

Amir Sadollah, Dennis Kang, Alan Belcher, Renan Barao, Rob Emerson, Sam Stout, Spencer Fisher. Who's some others?

Barao and Emerson were cut and are still fighting for other promotions. Stout retired.

Here’s one I’m still mystified by

Tyler Manawaroa 10-0 was on tuf nations, but didn’t get a contract due to a racist meme on his Instagram page from when he was 17, despite him being a minority himself.

He last fought in 2013 and is only 26. Im assuming he said fuck it and retired?

Big sexy?

 

[Kell Martin]

Emil Meek

 

[Mesos]

Damn havent heard of some of these names in years. Think injuries/illness is probably main reason for most drop offs/losing skids.

I think some cases its purely psychological. Once your head isnt in it anymore and you dont have that confidence then you wont win anymore

 

[MarloStanfield]

Big sexy?

What’s going on with Brad Tavares?

It’s been almost a year since he lost fought and then a year before that.

I always liked Brad, I hope he can make a comeback.
