Marcin knew it was coming for a quite a while. Afaik, he's already got offers.
When the UFC has another card in Europe, they may still try to contract him for 1 fight. That is if the organization he fights in next allows him to.

Held always bores me hes one dimensional and its not 1993. He needs to learn to strike or just enjoy crushing regional cans
