The UFC has parted ways with the 26-time Octagon veteran, according
to
MMAFighting.com. The promotion elected not to renew Trinaldo’s
contract after he fulfilled the last fight on his most recent deal
this past October.
Trinaldo appeared on “The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil” Season 1 and
made his promotional debut at UFC 147 on June 23, 2012. The now
44-year-old Brazilian went 18-8 over the course of his UFC tenure,
earning victories against the likes of Ross
Pearson, Yancy
Medeiros, Paul Felder,
Jim
Miller, Evan Dunham,
Bobby
Green and John
Makdessi, to name a few.
Trinaldo’s last appearance came at UFC Fight Night 211, where he
had a two-bout winning streak snapped in a unanimous decision loss
to Randy
Brown.
