@nydiacaskey01. Was Max Holloway removed from the fight because of injury again? Where is the announcement? The UFC website has Max listed as originally scheduled to fight Brian Ortega without any announcement of a change.

Also, why Renanto Moicano? hehehe
hey thanks for the feedback.

After looking at UFC site and other related sites it's Max Holloway vs Brian Ortega. I'll be updating OP. last night while checking Instagram, I saw the post of Dana White promoting this fight and it says Max Holloway and It got me confused. The fight of Renato Moicano vs Mirsad Bektić was cancelled due to the injury of Mirsad Bektić and it was announced earlier Renato Moicano will serve as a back up of Max Holloway in case something happens to Max Holloway.

I'm in fact more interested in the women's match up of this event. Valentina and Joanna are both top class fighters, with Shevchenko being voted one of the best female fighters of all time. In her UFC career she lost to only 2 fights in 8 years, and both to the same fighter, which can in a way count as a single loss loss Wink. Joanna has only 2 losses in her career, also both times to the same opponent. These two have great scores and are not going to give up easily. You can expect blood.

Yes it seems that the most interesting fight at least based on the statistics looks like it is the women fight. I never really have had the chance to see a real fight between women in real life, women rarely fight each other, different from what we men do. I think I will try to watch this game and find the time for it although I am very busy in life. Probably will end up watching the repost on youtube or something but I will definitely have a look at that fight.
