AUBURN HILLS, Mich. – Although once a top UFC lightweight contender, Tyson Griffin since has posted three consecutive losses.
The latest came Saturday on the untelevised preliminary card of UFC 123, where Griffin suffered a controversial split-decision defeat to Nick Lentz.
And though Griffin now has suffered a trio of defeats, UFC president Dana White said the Xtreme Couture fighter won’t be cut from the organization’s roster.
