UFC 275 Fight Cancelled
As originally reported by Eurosport, Rogerio Bontorin has had to be pulled from the fight card and his previously anticipated bout against Manel Kape.Â
Bontorin suffered from kidney issues from cutting weight and is currently in hospital ahead of the UFC 275 fight card.
Speaking to MMAFighting, Bontorinâs coach, Gile Ribeiro, revealed that his fighter had issues whilst cutting weight.
He said: âHe was in the process of cutting weight and felt a lot of pain in the lumbar area when he was 2kg (4.5 pounds) over, then he left the bathtub and it only got worse.
âWe called Marcus, from the UFC staff, to check on him and we needed an ambulance to go to the hospital. We ran some tests and he had renal insufficiency, so heâll stay in the hospital until tomorrow.â
It has not been confirmed if Kape will be getting a replacement, but it is likely that he will be cut from the fight card due to the late nature of this cancellation.
