More Fantasy News
No longer with UFC
Stephens is no longer a UFC fighter after his contract ran out late last year, Nolan King of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
It's no surprise to see that Stephens' contract wasn't renewed, as he failed to win any of his final six UFC fights. The 35-year-old had been with the promotion since 2007 and had several solid runs, but he's clearly past his peak.

Winless in past six fights
Stephens lost to Mateusz Gamrot via submission (kimura) at 1:05 of Round 1 at UFC on ESPN 26 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Stephens has had 34 career UFC bouts and been the company since May 2007, but it would be one of the greatest upsets in mixed martial arts history if he is given the opportunity for fight No. 35. The 35-year-old veteran has now lost three bouts in a row and is winless in his last six (0-5, 1NC) fights dating back to July 2018. This loss was the most concerning of the bunch, as Stephens was immediately forced to the mat by Gamrot and found himself tapping out just moments later. Stephens has been a good solider and fought the best the sport has to offer for well over a decade, but it appears as if the gas tank has finally hit empty. It was a great run.

Matchup with Gamrot on tap
Stephens (28-18-0, 1 NC) is scheduled to face Mateusz Gamrot (18-1-0) in a lightweight fight at the UFC's July 17 event, Farah Hannoun and Nolan King of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
For the first time since 2013, Stephens will be fighting as a lightweight as he looks to put an end to his ongoing losing streak. The 34-year-old hasn't won in any of his last five fights, going 0-4 with a no contest. Gamrot, meanwhile, will be looking to keep his momentum going after he notched his first UFC win in April, when he knocked out Scott Holtzman in the second round.
