Following UFC Fight Night in Mexico City, the UFC has decided not to renew the contracts of Felipe Bunes and Jose Daniel Medina, who were released from the roster following their respective losses at the event. Bunes lost via split decision to Edgar Chairez, while Medina was quickly defeated by Ryan Gandra by TKO in less than a minute. Both were granted the opportunity to compete in the main octagon, but their results reflected a lack of consistency within the promotion. With this decision, both athletes enter free agency and will be able to negotiate with other promotions, marking a major change in their careers within the MMA after the UFC Mexico.
