You’ll be hard-pressed to find a UFC event whose main card isn’t facing a potentially massive reshaping. The upcoming UFC Saudi Arabia card, scheduled for June 22 in Riyadh at the Kingdom Arena, is getting a new main event matchup. Khamzat Chimaev , the No-10-ranked middleweight in the promotion, has unfortunately been forced to withdraw from the event due to an illness he recently disclosed on social media.

Because of Aliskerov’s seven-fight win streak, history with Chimaev, and Islamic faith, he was a logical choice to step in as Whittaker’s opponent in Saudi Arabia. Regrettably, for Trocoli, a Brazilian veteran with high hopes in the UFC, his fight has been abruptly canceled. Trocoli, who earned a contract with the UFC after a submission win over Kenneth Bergh on the Dana White Tuesday Night Contender Series in 2019, now faces a setback. His win was overturned, and the fight ruled a no contest, all because

Trocoli was also fined and suspended, and this fight with Aliskerov was supposed to be his second chance at the UFC. Unfortunately for him, that will have to wait. The new co-main event of UFC Vegas 93 will be Douglas Silva de Andrade vs. Miles Johns.
