Kvinnliga stråviktaren Felice Herrig såg tidigare ut att gå sin nästa match mot Yan Xiaonan under UFC 238.
Herrig har nu blivit tvungen att dra sig ur på grund av en knäskada.
Via Instagram:
Unfortunately on Friday I tore my ACL and I do need surgery, which means I will not be fighting on [UFC 238]. I just want to say I’m sorry to the fans, to the UFC and most definitely my opponent. I hope she gets a replacement, there’s still enough time. As for me, what can you do? All I can do is move forward and stay positive and work on my recovery and come back stronger than ever. In the mean time, I hope everybody send me warm wishes and hugs and virtual kisses and prayers. Just know that I will be back.
Senast Herrig gick match var mot Michelle Waterson under UFC 229 i oktober förra året, där hon förlorade via ett enhälligt domslut. Hon har nu ett record på 14-8.
