Conor McGregor’s history-making teammate reportedly cut from the UFC for a second time after devastating knockout loss

A history of Hunter apparently had his second point ended in the UFC.

UFC 315 delivered a few major versions last month with Jack della Maddalena, who extracted Belal Muhammad into the main event to become the Welterweight Champion.

Earlier in the night there was a remarkable knockout with one punch in Montreal that started the card in style, even if it did not earn the night bonus.

Bekzat Almakhan sent a message to the Bantamweight Division after successfully returning from a debut loss to Umar Nurmagomedov.

Almakhan put McGregor's teammate in style, which led to their UFC career who went in opposing directions now that the opponent of the exciting competition seems to have left the schedule.

Two-time 'The Ultimate Fighter' winner Brad Katona has reportedly removed from the UFC schedule

Brad Katona reportedly left the UFC roster after his knockout loss against Bekzat Almakhan on UFC 315 last month.

Katona came to the fore for the first time on the radars of UFC fans when he participated and season 27 of 'The Ultimate Fighter' won and Kyler Phillips, Bryce Mitchell and Jay Cucciniello defeated to stay unbeaten.

His first run in the promotion ended after back-to-back losing to Merab Dvalishvili and Hunter Azure, but a four-field win racing in brave CF saw him return to the ultimate hunter for season 31.

With the season that UFC veterans draw against newcomers, Katona was once again conquering and made history as the first hunter to win the series twice.

He defeated Cody Gibson in the final before he went 1-3 in the Octagon, which now led to his second exit of the MMA leader.

Various social media pages, including UFCrostwatch and FullContactmtwf on X, reported the news.

Brad Katona recognized for UFC 315 that he had to do more to win close fights

At UFC 315, Almakhan was the first man to finish Brad Katona, who previously went to a decision in all his UFC fights.

Katona was fighting back and forth where, despite the fact that he was successful and showed a lot of heart, he was unable to lift his hand.

He referred to this in a fighting week interview with UFC.com prior to his matchup in Montreal last month.

“We are very successful when we go, we just have to go more and make more of it. So that has really been everything we have done in this camp, it just brings to it, not to sound old -fashioned, but the next level. It is just all these moments.

The Style of Katona was very effective in a tournament system such as the Ultimate Fighter, which apparently would make the PFL an ideal fit for him if he eventually signs with the promotion.
