Who will be cut from Ufc 109?

Phillipe Nover- guaranteed to be cut. That's three losses in a row and two to guys who are bottom dwellers.

Frank Trigg- two bad losses in a row. Trigg can't survive in the Ufc ww division.

Justin Buchholz- three losses in a row. He's gone.

Tim Hague- I actually think they'll keep him. Haven't seen the fight but many thought he won and he's young and has potential.

Mark Coleman- this is a tough one. After two decent performances Coleman looked terrible versus Couture. I wouldn't mind seeing him given one last chance versus the Chuck/Tito loser.

I hope they cut Coleman, Trigg. Both are done. After the awful performance also Rolles Gracie should get the ax.

Hague and Coleman will stay(Hague got robbed imo, Coleman has a grudge match potential with Tito which equals a decent payday for the UFC), the rest need to be shipped to showtime, MFC, or XFL.

Agree with TS's ppl, Trigg should go to SF. I wouldn't be shocked if Gracie gets cut, but I doubt it will happen... I saw a thread like this and ppl were saying Swick, are you kidding me?

I can't imagine them keeping Nover. If you can't beat Emmerson, you probably should go fight some smaller shows and get some confidence and experience back.

Stann....probably gone?

Buchholz - gone

Trigg - probably gone after all the talk of "loser leaves town"

All of them, and deservedly so in each case.

Out of that list the only one that might not be gone is Nover. Like Buchholz they're both 0-3 but 2nd in TUF carries a little bit more value. If Buchholz is allowed to go 0-3 I could totally see the TUF runner up being allowed 0-4 before he's out. Trigg, Hague and Coleman just need to go away.

Stann is 2-2 in the Ufc with wins over Rodney Wallace and Steve Cantwell. Those are pretty decent victories and Davis and Krystof aren't that bad losses. I think they'll keep STann. He's marketable, he's improving and he works with a great trainer.

That'll probably be it. But, for some reason, I see Dana giving Mark Coleman one more fight out of respect. Coleman made himself a hard sell after Saturday night, but they might find a way to polish his name up a bit for one more fight.

I shudder at the thought of what Chuck would do to Coleman. Please no.
