UFC TUF 26: Sijara Eubanks Ruled Out Of Inaugural Women's Flyweight Championship Fight


Sijara Eubanks has been removed from Friday night's main event in Las Vegas at The Ultimate Fighter 26 Finale. Credit: Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC/GettyEubanks battled to reach the finals to earn a shot at being named the first UFC women's flyweight champion, but she will not get an opportunity to win the title–at least not on Friday. Eubanks was set to battle Nicco Montano for the belt, but now the former will be replaced on the card by Roxanne Modaferri. While a legitimate UFC title will still be determined at the TUF 26 finale, the card was already devoid of household names. It hurts the fragile marketability of the event to lose the fighter who earned the right to battle for the belt.
