The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is gearing up for its next big event. UFC 213 is set to go down tonight, July 8, inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. However, the night’s main event has since been pulled. Now, it would appear that the UFC is attempting to put something new together.
It was recently reported that Amanda Nunes has been hospitalized, cancelling the night’s title fight main event against Valentina Shevchenko. However, UFC strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk has since revealed that the UFC and herself are supposedly attempting to pin her and Shevchenko against each other for a new main event.
“I spoke with @danawhite and the @ufc – we are going to try and make this fight happen! #ufc213,” Jedrzejczyk posted to Twitter.
