DANIEL CORMIER PULLS OUT OF UFC 206 WITH AN INJURY

Las Vegas, NV (November 25th, 2016)–UFC 206 took another huge hit as Daniel Cormier is forced to withdraw with an injury. Cormier was scheduled to take on Anthony Johnson at at UFC 206 on December 10th. Right now there is no word if Anthony Johnson will still be the main event. The UFC will look to replace the main event and we will report it on Real Combat Media MMA as soon as the new fight is announced.

This marks the second big fight UFC 206 lost this week: On Monday, Tim Kennedy revealed on The MMA Hour that he was in need of a new opponent after the Ontario Athletic Commission refused to license Rashad Evans. The UFC is hoping to book Kennedy vs. Kelvin Gastelum, but that fight is not official yet either.

UFC 206 is scheduled to take place at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. The current co-main event is Anthony Pettis vs. Max Holloway. The rest of the main card features Donald Cerrone vs. Matt Brown and Cub Swanson vs. Doo Ho Choi.
