Women’s Bout Scrapped From Tonight’s TUF 25 Finale
A women’s bantamweight bout has been scrapped from tonight’s (July 7, 2017) The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 25 Finale from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the last minute.
Jessica Eye’s fight against the debuting Aspen Ladd is off, as ‘Evil’ revealed on her official Instagram page:
The UFC confirmed the bout’s calling off, describing the reason as an illness for Ladd that most likely had something to do with cutting weight.
