βThis oneβs hard to sayβ¦
Iβve been with the UFC for 12 years, 26 fights, and Iβve never had to pull out of a fight.
Iβve been dealing with a neck injury for a while now. My last fight camp, I had a procedure in September just to get through it and step in that Octagon the beginning of October. This campβ¦ itβs just been one thing after another.
Iβm a competitor through and through, but I also have to take care of my health if I want to keep doing this the right way.
So yeahβ¦ Iβm gutted to say I have to withdraw from this fight. Apologies to the fans, @ufc and my opponent @norma_dumont_mma Iβll be back, and I still would love to share that Octagon with Norma when the timeβs right. Iβm hoping she gets a replacement opponent and her opportunity to compete isnβt stripped.
Thank you to everyone who rides with me through the highs and the lows. It means more than you know. β€οΈ
Setbacks donβt break me β they build me.β
Booty battle?!?!? Ailin Perez calls out Norma Dumont after βRockyβ bails on Noche UFC 3, gets blocked immediately
