The lightweight bout between Thiago Moises and Jalin Turner that was set to take place on tonight's UFC card has been cancelled, just hours before the event.
The fight has been cancelled following Thiago Moises testing positive for coronavirus, Combate journalist Ana Hissa announced on Twitter.
While it hasn't been confirmed coronavirus was 100% the reason, if true, this will mark the third week in a row the UFC has lost a fight due to one of its competitors testing positive to the virus, despite attending the weigh-ins just the day before.
Earlier, Kevin Natividad pulled out of his fight with Brian Kelleher, with Ray Rodriguez stepping in on short notice.
It's currently unclear whether the UFC plan to re-schedule the fight for a later date, or just scrap it all together.
