UFC Vegas 74 is down one fight.

After one week off, UFC returns this weekend (Sat., June 3, 2023) inside the UFC Apex Facility. Unfortunately, the main card has taken a late hit as Lightweight hopeful, Jamie Mullarkey’s (16-5), management has revealed that he’s agreed to fight a new opponent, reports Marcel Dorff. Mullarkey was originally set to open the main card opposite Georgia’s Guram Kutateladze (12-3). No reason for Kutateladze’s removal from the fight has been announced, nor has if Mullarkey’s new fight will still take place at UFC Vegas 74.

Mullarkey currently rides a two-fight winning streak after decision wins over Francisco Prado and the veteran, Michael Johnson. UFC Vegas 74 is now down to 12 fights after the shake up, leaving only one Lightweight fight between Jared Gordon and Jim Miller.
