Here’s the new bout order for UFC 228 after Nicco Montano vs. Valentina Shevchenko was nixed.
The UFC 228 co-main event between the now-former women’s flyweight champion Nicco Montano and Valentina Shevchenko was scrapped on Friday due to medical concerns for Montano, which means that there’s now only one title fight slated for Saturday.
UFC officials have since confirmed a couple of tweaks to tomorrow’s fight lineup in Dallas, Texas. The new co-main event is a strawweight bout between title contenders Jessica Andrade and Karolina Kowalkiewicz. Bumping up to the pay-per-view main card are bantamweights Jimmie Rivera and John Dodson. Lastly, welterweights Frank Camacho and Geoff Neal have gone from opening the Fight Pass prelims to the middle of the FX broadcast. The start time for the Fight Pass portion of the card was also moved up by 15 minutes.
