UFC President Dana White came out today and announced that he was releasing Rousimar Palhares from the UFC following his 31-second submission victory over Mike Pierce during last night’s UFC Fight Night 29 event.
Palhares held on tight to an ankle lock, long after his opponent tapped and the referee’s halt of the bout.
