UFC 223 takes place this weekend in Brooklyn, New York as the Ultimate Fighting Championship makes its return to the Big Apple. The event has undergone some major changes after a whirlwind of a week full of unexpected turns. Initially, the pay-per-view was set to be headlined by a lightweight title fight between interim champion Tony Ferguson and Khabib Nurmagomedov. Unfortunately, Ferguson suffered a knee injury during pre-fight media obligations and was forced to withdraw from the bout. That led to featherweight champion Max Holloway stepping up to take the fight against Nurmagomedov on just six days notice.
However, the cursed event was forced to change main events once again when the New York State Athletic Commission determined Holloway was medically unfit to compete after watching him struggle with his weigh in. That led to the UFC attempting to book Nurmagomedov against former champion Anthony Pettis, but Pettis and the promotion could not agree to financial terms.
Ultimately, Al Iaquinta landed the fight, but he is unable to claim the lightweight belt because he weighed in at 155.2 pounds at the official weigh-in. Nurmagomedov is still eligible to win the belt.
In addition to the changes in main event, an attack on the fighter bus by Conor McGregor led to multiple other fights getting scrapped from the event. Michael Chiesa vs. Anthony Pettis was scrapped because of cuts suffered by Chiesa when McGregor through a dolly through the bus window. Glass also got in the eye of Ray Borg, who was then forced out of his bout with Brandon Moreno. Artem Lobov, McGregor’s teammate, was pulled from the card for his involvement in the incident, canceling his scheduled bout with Alex Caceres. Finally, Paul Felder was left without an opponent when Iaquinta jumped at the opportunity to headline the pay-per-view in his home state.
