LAS VEGAS — The legend of Poatan continues to grow.
LAS VEGAS — In an unprecedented move, Brian Ortega has been forced to withdraw from his UFC 303 co-main event fight with Diego Lopes due to illness and has been replaced by Dan Ige, who was not scheduled to compete on the card. The fight will be contested at a catchweight of 165 pounds.
After weeks of drama leading up to the event, Ian Machado Garry will be carrying Irish interest at UFC 303 on Saturday night as he aims to take another step towards a title shot.
UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira steps up for the promotion on short notice once again as he puts his title on the line against former champ Jiří Procházka in the main event at UFC 303 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday night (10 p.m. ET on ESPN+ PPV, with prelims at 8 p.m. on ESPN/ESPN+ and early prelims at 6 p.m. on ESPN/ESPN+).
