A trio of fighters who lost at UFC Charlotte are no longer part of the promotion’s roster.
Jessica-Rose Clark, Ji Yeon Kim and Chase Sherman, who all suffered defeats at the event this past Saturday, have been released from contract or have not been re-signed after completing their latest contract, a person with knowledge of the move told MMA Fighting. The algorithm-based Twitter account UFC Roster Watch also confirmed the roster removals.
Veteran bantamweight Clark hoped to snap a two-fight skid in a bout against Tainara Lisboa. The 35-year-old Australian struggled early with her opponent’s striking and then submitted to a rear-naked choke in the final minute of the fight.
Clark struggled mightily with injuries inside and outside of the cage, suffering a dislocated elbow in her previous appearance when she submitted to an armbar against Julia Stoliarenko. She defeated Sarah Alpar in a 2020 appearance but tore her ACL, requiring a year-plus layoff.
