Travis Browne Released from UFC Contract After 7 Years

Travis Browne has been released from his UFC contract after completing it, ending his tenure with a record of 9-7-1 and not having fought since July 2017.


After seven years, Travis Browne is no longer under UFC contract.

Promotional officials confirmed to MMA Fighting on Tuesday that the UFC has released the 17-fight veteran after his contract was completed. “Hapa” hasn’t competed inside the octagon since getting submitted by Aleksei Oleinik at UFC 213 in July 2017. Per officials, Browne didn’t notify the UFC of a retirement.

Browne, who is the husband of former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey, ended his octagon tenure with a promotional record of 9-7-1. He finished notable fighters like Brendan Schaub, Josh Barnett, and Alistair Overeem. However, Browne concludes his contract with four straight losses, including TKO stoppages against Derrick Lewis and Cain Velasquez.

The 26-fight pro began his UFC run in June 2010. He went unbeaten in his first five appearances. Browne’s best year in the promotion took place in 2013 where he went 3-0 with three first-round finishes.
