The former U.S. Army sniper had to pull out of his fight against Albert Tumenov at UFC 188 on Saturday in Mexico City on Thursday night when doctors deemed him unfit to compete, the UFC announced. The fight will be canceled altogether since it's too late to find Tumenov another foe.
Ed Kapp, a rep from Todhunter's Team Guardian management firm, told MMAFighting.com that Todhunter passed out trying to make weight. UFC officials noticed the issue and alerted doctors, who administered IV fluid, Kapp said.
Todhunter, 27, took the bout on less than two weeks notice when Tumenov's original opponent, Hector Urbina, withdrew due to injury.
