Two Fights Removed From UFC Vegas 26 Card
UFC Vegas 26 will now have 10 fights instead of 12.
The event will be taking place inside the UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada. The preliminary portion of the card was expected to feature Ben Rothwell vs. Philipe Lins and Ryan Benoit vs. Zarrukh Adashev. Both bouts have been canceled.
Lins can’t compete against Rothwell due to an illness. Benoit was not medically cleared after failing to make weight for his previously scheduled bout with Adashev. Benoit struggled to stay on his feet during the weigh-ins.
