Standing in front of Gilbert Yvel in a combat sport is the sadistic equivalent of challenging a rottweiler to a barking contest. Either situation is going to have you leave with a migraine wishing you strived for better grades in high school. If the dog gets off the leash and ends up mauling you, that’s coincidentally the same fate you’d suffer from Gilbert Yvel once he connects with 1-8-3-2-5 combination. Unfortunately, Gilbert Yvel has been removed from the UFC’s heavyweight roster and as a direct result, anatomic biologists still don’t know the fastest way to extract a spleen from the human body. The silver lining to this cloud is that the remainder of the UFC heavyweight division and their respective spleens are safe. New test subjects for Gilbert will have to come from another organization’s’ heavyweight division in 2011. As excited as we were when the Hurricane was signed to the UFC is as equally bummed out we are of him leaving. At least we’ll always have his highlight reel tattooed in our memory. [Source]

This makes me very sad. What makes me more sad is that he never got to display his talent in the UFC.

I know! WTF are they thinking keeping a guy who is 8-5-1 in their organization and axing a guy who is 0-3. Makes no sense!

1-8-3-2-5... is that what JDS used to knock Yvel's block clean off?

& he'd still pound whatevs left of Rizzo, who is about 4-5 leg kicks (vs Sylvia) from a coveted "UFC Contract".

Dude was a beast! Joel Silva shouldn't have put him against Madsen. We might have seen another clip on his highlight reel if he would 've fought somebody like McSweeney or Pat Barry.

Todd Duffee, Gonzaga and Yvel.

I would love to see those guys in Strikeforce.

Just imagine Yvel x Rogers!!! Duffee x Lashley!!! or Gonzaga x Lavar Johnson!

I love Yvel but his fights were well bellow his normal standard. He has just lost that crazy factor. I think there are too many rules in modern MMA for Yvel's to truly shine that and Dan MIragliotta is to big for Yvel to try to knock out.

yvel looked really out of shape against madsen too. maybe he just needs to get his shit together or something. he didn't look like the hurricane in the ufc. nice pantera music in this clip too!
