A women’s strawweight bout pitting Jinh Yu
Frey against Hannah
Goldy has been pulled from Saturday’s
UFC Fight Night 202 card.
Promotion officials
announced on Wednesday that an illness forced Goldy to withdraw
from the event, and a replacement opponent will not be sought for
Frey. As a result, UFC Fight Night 202 will move forward with 11
bouts. It is unclear if Frey vs. Goldy will be rebooked at a later
date.
UFC Fight Night 202 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and is
headlined by a lightweight showdown between Islam
Makhachev and Bobby Green.
The main card airs on ESPN+ beginning at 7 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT
following prelims on ESPN+ at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT.
Goldy snapped a two-bout skid in her last appearance, when she
submitted Emily
Whitmire in the opening stanza at UFC Fight Night 192 this past
September. The 29-year-old Dana White’s Contender Series alum began
her pro tenure with five consecutive triumphs before dropping
back-to-back decisions against Miranda
Granger and Diana
Belbita in the Octagon.
A former Invicta FC atomweight queen, Frey lost her first two
promotional appearances at 115 pounds. The 36-year-old Genesis
Jiu-Jitsu representative has found her footing more recently,
earning consecutive unanimous verdicts over Gloria de
Paula and Ashley
Yoder.
