Seemingly, Ryan Jimmo did not enjoy working for the UFC one bit.
The UFC axed 14 fighters from its roster this week, and Canadian light-heavyweight Ryan Jimmo was almost certainly the happiest to hear he had been ousted from the promotion.
The former Maximum Fighting Championship titlist, Jimmo debuted in the Octagon by knocking out Anthony Perosh in seven seconds, but “The Big Deal” ended his UFC tenure with a record of 3-4, bowing out after back-to-back losses against Francimar Barroso and Ovince St. Preux.
Judging by his reaction on social media, he was only thrilled with the news of losing his job.
@Y2CASEY nope, Joe silva personally called me. can't tell you how happy I am to be out of that prison sentence
