UFC 256 Loses Three Fights
The UFC has continued to forge through the Covid-19 pandemic, but the virus has continued to present obstacles like fights getting cancelled each fight week. And UFC 256 is no different.
The card has been hit with three positive Covid-19 tests. Angela Hill will no longer be facing Tecia Torres in a women’s strawweight bout after testing positive. Hill has already competed four times this year. Dwight Grant has tested positive cancelling his welterweight fight versus Li Jingliang. Karl Roberson has tested positive and his fight against Dalcha Lungiambula has reportedly been moved to December 19th.
