Bantamweight contender John Lineker has pulled out of his UFC Greenville rematch with Rob Font this weekend due to an undisclosed reason.

The news was first reported by MMA Junkie, citing two sources who informed them of the development on early Friday morning. With the UFC yet to officially announce the news, the two sources had asked for anonymity.

Lineker stepped in as a short-notice replacement for Cody Stamann to take on Font. Serving as the card’s co-main event, it would have been a rematch of their 2016 meeting which saw Lineker emerge victorious via unanimous decision.

However, that will no longer be the case. With weigh-ins taking place later on in the day, it is unlikely the UFC will be able to land another short-notice opponent for Font. Font’s management company Top Game Management also declined to comment when reached by MMA Junkie.

It serves as a blow not only for the card and Font, but Lineker as well. “Hands of Stone” recently made a plea to the UFC to book him in more fights or release him as he was struggling to make ends meet. It’s possible that having taken the fight on short notice, the Brazilian was unable to make the weight. However, nothing is known as of yet.

UFC Greenville takes place Saturday at Bon Secours Wellness Arena. The event will be headlined by a featherweight tilt between Renato Moicano and Chan Sung Jung. There is no word on which fight will now serve as the co-main event.

Chan Sung Jung had to find some peace before he made his return to the Octagon for his next fight.

Jung was just about to win his return fight in a five-round war with Yair Rodriguez at UFC Denver. However, with one second to go, he lost it all. During a recent interview, he elaborated on how this fight haunted him more than fight fans know:

“Post-fight, it was devastating for me, but I came to accept it because everything went according to my plan,” Jung told MMA Junkie. “I did gut it out at the end. I pushed it until the end. For athletes, it’s either you win or you lose. It’s the outcome that really matters. The post-fight was a loss for me. Back then I did feel embarrassed, but after a while, it’s more like an accomplishment, I feel. I don’t feel embarrassed anymore.”

Rodriguez was able to score an amazing knockout on Jung at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado on FOX Sports 1. As seen in the UFC Denver headliner, there was just one second left in the fifth round. This is when Rodriguez landed an elbow to the chin of Jung that put him to sleep.

After the fight, it was revealed that had the fight lasted one more second and went to the judges’ scorecards, then Jung would’ve won. He won the fight at the minimum by split decision. Jung meets Renato Moicano in a featherweight bout that will serve as the headliner of the upcoming UFC Greenville event.

This is set to take place on Saturday, June 22, 2019, at Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, South Carolina. The main card will air on ESPN+ at 7 p.m. ET. The preliminary card will air on ESPN+ 4 p.m. ET.
