Jose ‘Shorty’ Torres Reveals UFC Release, Flyweight Division’s End | SiriusXM | Luke Thomas


With Demetrious Johnson off to ONE Championship, the end of the UFC men’s flyweight division was thought to be short lived. Adding fuel to that fire is the release of top prospect Jose ‘Shorty’ Torres, who revealed on Twitter today he’d be cut or released from his UFC contract. Most interestingly, he wasn’t even given the option of moving up to bantamweight. In this interview from my radio show, he reveals what the UFC told him and what could be next.



The Luke Thomas Show airs weekdays, 3 to 6pm ET, on SiriusXM RUSH, channel 93.

  1. At the end of the day it really just comes down to the fact that as a society we are naturally quite “heightist” and for the most part will be more interested in heavier divisions due to biological bias.

  2. "Fair Share?" He's using it in the totally wrong context and got knocked out in his last fight.
