That news comes from MMAJunkie, who reported that Impa Kasanganay, John Allan, Liana Jojua and Bharat Khandare have been cut or let go by the organization.

Kasanganay (9-2 MMA) was let go shortly after suffering a first round TKO loss to Carlston Harris back in September. Impa, a former standout on “Dana White’s Contender Series”, went 2-2 during his four fights under the UFC banner.
