Just as a headliner Henderson got injured - partial MCL tear. So with no main event the whole card has been cancelled. Tune in here for more information.

Today at a special press conference, UFC President Dana White announced that Jon Jones refused to fight a replacement offer of Chael Sonnen for his title fight at the advice of his coach, Greg Jackson.
White was not for a loss of words when describing the situation: Greg Jackson is a f--king sport killer. We've never had a fighter refuse to fight a guy. It's never happened.

read this:-
Turns out they have to pull the card because of NSAC rules.
If you promote a championship fight and it gets cancelled, you have to cancel the card.
