"According to multiple sources, Borg has been battling an illness this week and was deemed unfit to fight by UFC doctors.

The current plan is to rebook the flyweight title fight as soon as possible, but nothing has been finalized at this time.

In another strange twist, the Nunes-Shevchenko title fight was canceled just hours before UFC 213 in July due to a Nunes sinus issue, prompting UFC president Dana White to vow that he wouldn't put Nunes in the headlining act in her next fight.

UFC 215 will currently proceed with 11 fights."

This ppv should be free now, the two best fights are off now. this is such a disappointment, the ufc dropped the ball not getting a replacement for JDS to save this thing
 
This surely cements 215's place in the hall of fame of clusterfuck cards if not being the GOAT. Sure there have probably been even worse (not much worse) PPV cards and cards that even got cancelled. But that doesn't give enough credit to the full spectrum of retardation that UFC 215 brings to the table. Firstly, this was supposed to be UFC 216 and is the throwaway result of a freak boxing match and the inability to make an earlier match up between DJ and Dillasnake.

So they made this thrown together 'double header' be two fights, one a do-over, the other a fight the UFC tried to stop in favor of a much better fight, and both of which nobody gave a fuck about in the first place, come after the promotion shat all over both fights. Both debacles were a direct result of the dumpster fire that was UFC 213 with its two main events pulling out.

The only fight anybody cared about was cancelled (Ngannou-JDS) and then after all to have one of the two joke main events not go ahead - with talk of them rolling it over to the next card, means this shit-train just never stops.

This whole mess has consumed UFC 213, the original cancelled UFC 215, the replacement UFC 215, UFC 216 and UFC 217.
 
i feel bad for anyone who is traveling to edmonton for this.edmonton is way up north and around nothing.it is a long way to go for almost everyone for a super shitty card.canada always gets fucked.thanks dana
 
Damn, I never bought my ticket early enough, and there's no way any are still available for this stellar event.



Why do we deserve this? Did Alberta fuck your wife, Egg? You screwed Calgary and they're still waiting for the promised payback for that shitshow.
(reminder of that abortion: Calgary's 1st UFC event deemed among worst ever )
Now Edmonton is getting bent over.

In rasslin, they call it "killing the town", pissing off the fans so much they'll never want to support you again.
 
dude it is an 1150km drive from vancouver and 300km to calgary and those are the closest cities.that is a long way to go for a chick fight main event.at least it isnt snowing yet if you have to look on the bright side of things
