When will it stop???

On Monday (June. 17, 2024), the start of UFC Saudi Arabia fight week, Sedriques Dumas announced on his social media that his fight with Denis Tiuliulin is canceled.

“Sorry to my fans and teams. The fight has been postponed because of VA and flight reasons. Stay tuned. We should have a soon date available soon. Hope we can ride it back,” Dumas wrote.

Dumas took to his Instagram an hour later to write a cryptic message.

“After everything I have done and everything else, I feel like a f—king bozo,” Dumas wrote on his Instagram story. “I stuck my neck out and did a lot for people and at the end of the day I get looked at like shit. Somethings happen in mysterious as a way just to show how things and people are. I can’t believe this shit.”


With Dumas vs. Tiuliulin being off, that is the seventh canceled fight.

Dumas (9-2) is coming off a controversial first-round stoppage at UFC Atlantic City, in which he was eye-poked by Nursulton Ruziboev (watch it).

Tiuliulin (11-9) is riding a three-fight losing streak and is currently 1-4 inside UFC.
