UFC releases heavyweight prospect Todd Duffee
by John Morgan on Sep 07, 2010 at 7:20 pm ET
Heavyweight prospect Todd Duffee (6-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) is a free agent.
A little more than one year after Duffee burst onto the UFC scene with a seven-second knockout of Tim Hague, the 24-year-old is no longer employed by the sport's largest mixed martial arts promotion.
MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) learned of the UFC's decision from multiple sources with knowledge of the move, and Duffee's manager, Alex Davis, confirmed the report.
Davis declined to comment further on the matter or speculate as to the reason behind the UFC's decision.
Duffee wasn't immediately available for comment when contacted by MMAjunkie.com.
Following his record-breaking win over Hague (officially the fastest knockout in UFC's history), Duffee was defeated by Mike Russow at UFC 114 in one of the most dramatic turnarounds in the organization's history. Duffee was in control of the fight for the first two-and-a-half rounds before a right hand left him flat on his back.
Nevertheless, Duffee was targeted for a bout with Jon Madsen at October's UFC 121 event. A lingering knee injury forced him out of the planned contest, and Gilbert Yvel stepped in to take the fight.
It's not immediately evident what Duffee plans to do next, but the massive heavyweight will undoubtedly demand interest from organizations both U.S-based and overseas.

Will the UFC ever recover!? ::)

I thought he was over hyped anyway, don't get me wrong, he's got potential but he brawls with another nobody, gets a lucky shot and all of a sudden he's the next big thing. I have a feeling he'll be back once he gets a few wins and is brought up the right way.

That hammerfist killed his career.

In his first UFC fight he had the quickest KO in UFC History, 6 seconds. He is also one of the only MMA athletes who's sponsered by MUSCLETECH.

Muscletech gives Todd the things he needs to be a winner, he put 78lbs on his bench press within 4 seconds of taking the Celltech and Nitro tech stack and to give him stamina in the cage he takes "Nor90" which makes him like a freight train. Pick up Muscletech(tm) products at your local GNC store

All that stuff probably gave him a massive lactic acid overload which is why he gassed so hard in his last fight.
