Ask Elliot Marshall about that
He was 3-0 in the UFC, and then got cut after his first loss.

I think if Yvel loses this fight he may well get his “marching orders”.

WHY?
If this is true, it’s a sure loss by LnP for Yvel. I liked Duffee – Madsen better, I think Duffman’s TDD is much better, he’s also faster and they’re both newbies. Hell, Duffee – Yvel would also be ok.. Madsen by boring decision (again).

This is a terrible matchup
I hate Madsen’s fights and Yvel is….not really UFC material.
Madsen my LnP.
Toronto FC - Where road games are forfeited and we STILL have no idea how to play from behind.
Disappointing for Duffee.
Perhaps this is why he is looking for a part time job for some steady income.
I hope Stout/Taylor make it to the prelims
When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail." - Jack Burton
This won't be as bad as everyone thinks...
…Yvel is a tough SOB, whose faced a who’s who of MMA names, so he should be a good test for Madsen, even if he’s on the downslope of his career.
The upside of this situation for all the Hurricane haters is that a 3rd straight loss will probably lead to him getting cut by the UFC.
Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?
