UFC Releases Joe Doerksen
Joe Doerksen is the latest fighter to lose his contract at the UFC. Doerksen is the most recent after Kalib Starnes and Travis Lutter bit the bullet last week. Doerksen’s most recent fight was with Jason MacDonald at UFC 83 on April 19th.
“The UFC officials made it very clear they’re very happy with the way I fight and they want me to come back,” Doerksen said in the report. “But they need me to go put a couple of wins together first. It’s always a possibility whenever you lose. I’ve come and gone several times over my career and I’m sure I’ll be back again. It’s not really devastating news. It’s just the cycle I have to go through.”
Doerkson once pieced together a seven fight win streak. After his three consecutive losses at UFC and WEC he has ben sent back to the little leagues.
“I talked to my manager and he said take a vacation for a couple of weeks and don’t even think about fighting until June,” Doerksen said. “He said fighters like me are always in high demand. People find my fights entertaining and he’s not going to have any trouble finding me fights. So I’m not really worried about it.”
