Jay Hieron is 0-4 in the UFC and lost his only two fights on this run, but he should not be cut.
His first fight was late notice against Ellenberger, who is a top fighter and close to a title shot.
His last fight was against a top prospect and he just got caught by a huge punch.
He has an exciting style and brings a lot of charisma into his fights.

I disagree. Cut him.
I'm sorry but I just don't think he can compete at the top level anymore...
The Ellenberger fight was close and he didn't get KO'ed by him.
He beat Rick Hawn and arguably beat Ben Askren.
Definitely can still compete.
I'm torn. 0-5 would be fun.
I kind of want to see him get the record.
I'd like to see another fight. But I could see the cut happenening and can't really argue it. He has winnable fights though still in UFC.
Don't care either way. If he gets another fight I am fine with that, and if he gets cut I won't be signing a petition to get him back in the UFC.
SasquatchShaman - The Ellenberger fight was close and he didn't get KO'ed by him.

I suppose... It depends who he gets matched up with, he has gotten two VERY tough opponents since coming back to the UFC.

Definitely, I think most people would say he could beat over half the fighters at 170 in the UFC.
What's up Jay?
Jay is a good fighter, but he's old guard. Guys like him are consistently being outclassed by the new generation of fighters who started early and grew up training MMA and bring a very well-rounded skill-set to the cage.
I don't say cut him, but I wouldn't be surprised if the UFC lets him go.
Signed. I like Jay and I know he can beat a lot of WW's. Give him another shot Dana.

Yeah, I bet they won't let him fight matt brown or some mid-level white boy. They tried to give him straight killers like eric silva. They want him out.
If they cut Jay hieron, I'm straight up dis-inviting Dana White and Joe Silva from my birthday party.
Signed. And give the guy who knocked him out last night 10 more fights. I want him VS. Uriah Hall (fingers crossed that he turns out as legit as he looks in Ultimate Fighter, I'm riding that hype train so hard)

Mid level white boy?
Oh.
I'd like to see him fight once more. I don't think anyone expected woodley to catch him like that, not even Tyron.
Put him vs Wonderboy Thompson
