Per his Twitter

Guy is 6-2 at 155 in the UFC. Retarded cut regardless if he's a wrestler

The UFC is geared more towards a diverse ethnic roster, with a nice touch of lesbian. Who needs a white guy with a winning record now days anyways?

Terrible release...the guy is 6-2 at LW...what message does this send to other fighters? I am good wrestler, I have a really good record, but if I don't stand and wang and continue to wrestle one loss and I am on the chopping block? Call me crazy, but I really think this new Fox crowd is pushing the UFC to be ultimate kickboxing...and Zuffa is selling out.

You could knock fighters like Volkmann, Fitch, Woodley, Lents all day. You could say they suck and their boring, but if they are winning fights and are proven to be elite they should not be cut just because the tapout crowd thinks they boring. Grappling has always been a part of MMA and should continue to be...if you don't like it go watch boxing.

I won't miss him to be honest... I'm sure Dana's trying to send a message tho, don't take your opponent down and hump his leg the whole fight... It's alright if you're a wrestler but when you get a take down for god sakes DO SOMETHING WITH IT!

Not enough twitter followers? Didn't talk enough shit about other fighters? Maybe Dana just doesn't like him? We all know in the cage results mean very little these days.

Joe Silva is the one who cut him.

….It’s fitting that a black guy (Green) and three foreigners (Sass, Thiago, Kampmann) are responsible for Volkmann’s release.
