UFC light heavyweight William Knight, who received a ton of criticism for his strange performance, fell to 3-4 in the promotion after his unanimous decision loss to Marcin Prachnio.

The ‘Knightmare’ responded to critics by saying he “froze up” against Prachnio in a now-deleted Instagram video.

The former Contender Series contestant earned wins over Fabio Cherant and Alonzo Menifield after a 1-1 start to his UFC tenure.

That two-fight win streak was snapped, as Knight suffered losses to Maxim Grishin, Devin Clark, and now Prachnio.

UFC middleweight-turned-light heavyweight Jordan Wright, who suffered his fourth consecutive loss — a unanimous decision to Zac Pauga, was also removed from the roster.

In his seven-fight stint with the promotion, the ‘Beverly Hills Ninja’ went 2-5 overall.

Lina Lansberg announced her retirement from mixed martial arts Immediately after her loss to Mayra Bueno Silva.

“Thank you so much for all the love and support,” wrote the “Elbow Queen”. “This has been a hell of a ride and to start fighting is the best thing I’ve ever done. It has given me so, so much. But now it’s time to move on. I’m done.”
