UFC confirms Tá Danado's dismissal

Brazilian Carlos Eduardo “Tá Danado” is no longer part of the UFC’s roster of athletes. The welterweight, who has a record of nine wins and three losses, was released from the organization after a setback to Mike Pierce at UFC on FX 3, an event held on June 8.

The fight against Pierce marked the return of “Tá Danado” in the UFC, as the Brazilian was away from competition for more than a year due to an injury. In his last performance before the injury, the Brazilian had been surpassed by Jake ellenberger, in February 2011.
