Sometimes, when it rains, it pours. Such often is the case for the UFC.
Not two hours after announcing the loss of its co-main event for UFC 153, the UFC now has lost its top draw on the card. Featherweight champion Jose Aldo has been forced out of his title fight with Frankie Edgar, leaving the UFC with a pair of holes in the top two positions for its return to Brazil.
UFC President Dana White on Tuesday announced the news, summing it up on Twitter with: “Another amazing day at the UFC. We have some work to do.”
