UFC president Dana White is open to having Jared Cannonier serve as the backup for the UFC 248 main event on March 7.
The event will be headlined by a middleweight title fight between current champion Israel Adesanya and Yoel Romero. Cannonier was initially scheduled to fight former champion Robert Whittaker on the card.
However, the latter had to pull out for undisclosed personal reasons. There was then talk of Darren Till potentially stepping in to face Cannonier, but that also hasn’t come to fruition with the Liverpool native holding out for the right deal.
As it stands, “The Killa Gorilla” is in limbo and even White is unsure if a fight with Till will take place on the card.
But White was open to having Cannonier serve as the backup for the main event should he not compete on the card. Romero has had a history of missing weight in the past and if that happens again, Cannonier would be in prime position to step in.
“Yeah, yeah,” White replied when asked if he would use Cannonier as the backup.
What do you think of Cannonier being the backup for the UFC 248 main event?

Earlier today (Fri. February 7, 2020) UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and Yoel Romero faced off for the very first time.
The pair will headline the UFC 248 pay-per-view (PPV) event from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 7. Today, the UFC held a UFC 248 press conference, where both Adesanya and Romero fielded questions from the media. After, UFC president Dana White had Adesanya and Romero face off. The face-off actually resulted in a mini dance-off as well. Check it out below.
Adesanya’s fight with Romero will be the first title defense of the Nigerian-born champion’s career. He unified the 185-pound strap when he knocked out Robert Whittaker last year. He’ll take on Romero, a man who is on a two-fight losing streak. There has been a lot of controversy surrounding Romero receiving a title opportunity, a move Adesanya calls “charity work.”
However, “Stylebender” called Romero out after some chatter amongst the mixed martial arts (MMA) community suggesting that the Cuban has what it takes to finally down Adesanya. Romero was more than happy to answer the call. We’ll see whether or not that’s the case next month.
