The UFC Fight Night 186 training has been another success.
The women’s fight between Angela Hill and Ashley Yoder scheduled for tonight’s main card has been canceled.
Two people aware of the situation on Saturday informed MMA Junkie of the cancellation, but asked to remain anonymous. One person stated that the cancellation was the result of a positive test of COVID-19 from Yoder camp. A UFC press release later stated that it was “due to COVID-19 protocols.”
The promotion wants to change the UFC Fight Night 187 match on March 13th.
The fight is the third UFC Fight Night 186 fight canceled due to COVID-19. Raoni Barcelos vs. Marcelo Rojo and William Knight vs. Alonzo Menifield were also canceled during fight week.
UFC Fight Night 186 takes place Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The card is transmitted to ESPN +.
With the cancellation, the UFC Fight Night 186 lineup now includes:
