News BREAKING: Arman Tsarukyan OUT of UFC 311 Main Event; Renato Moicano steps up to face Islam for the LW title

[Siver!]

Could be something...

Could be nothing...

Could be he's refused to wear his custom shorts...

But the rumour is interesting.

Yup. Rumors swirling on X that he's out of the fight.

Absolutely pathetic of Arman if so.

There is no backup fighter either.

 

[Beastslayer47]

So there's insider news coming in from Arman's cornerman that there will be an official announcement regarding Arman at 11AM P.T. I have a feeling he may be injured

F this

UFC and Bellator are both dead now.

 

[LoveMyMMA]

The Weigh-in Show team just said UFC is making an announcement at 11am PT / 1pm EST.

We're so cooked.

Give it to Dawson or CDF if thats the case. Dawson vs Islam could be interesting

They'd probably offer it to Moicano or Dariush first.

 

[usernamee]

sounds too weird to be about him pulling out

his cornerman announcing there's a big announcement regarding Arman? that's not usually how this shit is dealt with..

Haaa forgot they were on card. Derp. Moicano is obvious choice

How else is it dealt with?

Unless they're trying to negotiate a catchweight behind the scenes with Islam?

But apparently its a back injury...probably awaiting final word from the doctors.

usually UFC wants to be the one to steer the ship, not have some cornerman dealing out the news

 

[Pechan]

Get Poatan in there

 

[Gamer007]

Islam has only defended his title once against a legitimate lightweight contender with actual wins in the division, and that was a past prime Dustin Poirier.

Islam needed this fight badly, maybe he would've lost or maybe he would've won. But he is lacking in legitimate title defenses.

 

[Neck&Neck]

Dan Ige incoming?

 

[CobraCobretti]

Get that money Moicano!

 

[PaddyO'malley]

Troe McGregor in der wif him!
