It takes so much to get suspended from the UFC, let alone banned for existence from ever competing within the promotion ever again.

In most circumstances of suspensions or being banned, it has to do with something that a fighter has done out of doors of the octagon (generally it occurs to be a criminal fee, a fight, or just failing a substance abuse test for the USADA).
In other instances, the fighter dedicated some unprofessional behavior during a fight within the octagon. But no matter what the reason may or may not be, all of it just boils down to a fighter getting on Dana White's unhealthy aspect sufficient that he needs to kick any individual to the curb. Here are some cases where he did simply that for frequently understandable causes.
16 Ruslan Magomedov
Ruslan Magomedov had one too many doping violations whilst within the UFC. Fall 2018 saw him obtain his 3rd USADA failed take a look at. When he refused to present any other one for the following February, the Russian heavyweight was once banned from any and all future UFC events forever. He is actually banned for life.

The following April, UFC launched him.
12 Cody East
Not many people bear in mind the title Cody East, and if Dana White has the rest to say about it, he'd like to keep it that manner.

11 Nick Diaz

Out of guilt, Dillashaw voluntarily relinquished his identify, however UFC still slapped him with a two-year suspension. Given how serious an offense like that is, particularly coming all through his title reign, UFC would possibly lengthen it to a life-time ban.
9 BJ Penn

He is now not these days signed to UFC.
8 Diego Brandao

His liberate from the promotion used to be sealed after he suffered a legal price later in the year.
7 Matt Riddle
Matt Riddle has at all times been open about his reefer usage over the years, however after checking out certain for the substance two times in the same year in 2013, after prior to now serving a 90 day suspension during the last time, he was launched through UFC. While Dana White has venomously spoken in opposition to ever hiring Riddle once more, the "Bro" has now settled on changing into a wrestler.
6 Tom Lawlor
Another fighter grew to become wrestler, Tom Lawlor was simply suspended from the UFC for 2 years in 2016 - eligible to fight once more after October in 2018 - after checking out sure for Ostarine in an out of competition take a look at for the USADA. Just a month earlier than his ban used to be set to be lifted, he was once released from the UFC.
5 Maiquel Falcao

Despite this promise, White re-signed Silva after the charges had been dropped, however after audio was once launched confirming the once-alleged incident that ended in Silva's arrest, he was once launched again with none promise to go back.
3 Rousimar Palhares
In his prime, Rousimar Palhares had a nasty recognition for locking in submissions on fighters and refusing to liberate the hang after the ref called the battle. The ultimate time he did it, he was already in hot water for a 2012 suspension. Henceforth, this was Dana White's final straw. He had no selection but to release Palhares.
2 Paul Daley
After losing to Josh Koscheck at UFC 113, Paul Daley sucker punched Koscheck in a while. He used to be then launched. “I don’t care if [Daley] fights in every show all over the world and turns into the best, and everyone thinks he is the pound-for-pound best on this planet,” Dana White stated in a remark made soon after. “He won't ever battle in the UFC again.”
1 War Machine
Originally, Jonathan "War Machine" Koppenhaver was launched from UFC because of foul feedback he made concerning the overdue Evan Tanner, but it surely wasn't an offense unhealthy sufficient to near the door on his UFC long run.
