Some fans found it strange that Yair Rodriguez , one of UFC's most popular Mexican fighters, wasn't a part of Noche UFC. If things align properly, he would be an excellent replacement to fill in for UFC 307 .The fight was canceled, but Evloev hoped the UFC would find him an opponent. I haven't seen Rodriguez's name mentioned as a potential replacement officially, but based on a few factors, he seems like a logical candidate to step in for Sterling.
Rodriguez is currently ranked No. 4, and Evloev is No. 6. A win could elevate the undefeated Evloev into the Top 5. A victory for Rodriguez would re-position him as a more immediate title contender. Also, Rodriguez has never been one to have a boring fight. His style is one of the more exciting ones in the sport. He hasn't fought since February when Ortega stopped him.
There is a question as to whether he is healthy enough to compete, as you figure the UFC would have wanted to have him on the Noche UFC card. If he is healthy and willing to step up on about two weeks notice to take this fight, it would be a strong pivot for the UFC as it keeps solid name recognition on the card. If Evloev is made to wait, Sterling did say it was possible he could be ready to fight him by December. Alex Pereira vs. Khalil Rountree Jr. The card is still stacked if that fight is canceled and not replaced. Let's see if Rodriguez or someone else gets the call to replace Sterling.
