Starnes Cut, "Should Look For a New Line of Work"

ImageKalib Starnes put on one of the most dreadful performances in UFC history last Saturday night when he ran away from Nate Quarry for three rounds. Needless to say, he lost the fight, his dignity and now something more.

According to Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports, Starnes has been released from his UFC contract and given some harsh words by Dana White:

“He just doesn’t belong in the UFC and after his performance the other night, he should consider a new line of work,” White said Monday.

Ouch. But he is dead on and Starnes definitely deserved to be cut from the UFC. He was so bad in the loss to Quarry that the three ringside judges scored the fight 30-26, 30-27, and a never seen before 30-24 which is simply laughable. I doubt we will ever see him back in the octagon again and his future in MMA, if he even has one, will be on small, local shows.
