UFC publishes Conor McGregor's former TUF student after the Sieg -Uufc Run

While we saw UFC champions like Sean O'malley and Michael Bisping The ultimate fighter And Dana White's competitive seriesAppearance or even win these shows guarantees no success with promotion.

The most recent example of this is Landon Quinones, which the UFC published this week after a praised run with the action and a longer absence.

Quinones was on the Tuf The team, which was trained by Conor McGregor in March 2023, when the former UFC spring and lightweight champion was booked for the first time to stand against Michael Chandler.

Quinones led an interview with Gallimbo Sports and he was asked if he met McGregor. “Conor went into the room and I was like, who, that is really Conor McGregor,” said Quinones. “I was really a star. It was crazy. “

Quinones lost his only tuf-match against Jason Knight about Triangle Choke in the first round, but still received a contract with the UFC. He then lost unanimous decisions to Nasrat Haqparast and Marquel Moderos in September 2023 and February 2024.

After the loss against Modernos, Quinones decided to take some time from sport. He announced his break on Instagram. It is unclear whether the UFC was fed up with waiting for the former Titan FC Champion to run a fight or whether they have just decided to continue.

Quinones earned a place on the TUF squad after putting five victories in a row with Titan FC, with four of the victories of Ko/TKO. Unfortunately, he was never able to find the winning column in the UFC.

In any case, Quinones is only 29 years old. He has time to run and return to the Oktagon if he wishes. At the moment he officially leaves the UFC with a 0-2 record because the TUF fight is technically an exhibition.

The Pro MMA record from Quinones is 7-3-1 and it could fit a regional action, back in Titan or maybe even with the Professional Fighters League. Quinones trained at Kill Cliff FC and with the MMA Science Academy. Therefore, there should be no lack of training partners to help him prepare for a revival.

We will see where he lands.
