The UFC 256 preliminary card has taken a hit, as Angela Hill tested positive for COVID-19. The women’s strawweight announced the positive result on her Instagram page.
Hill was scheduled to fight against fellow straw-weight contender Tecia Torres in a highly anticipated rematch but broke the news on Sunday that she will not be participating. According to the American, she had took every precaution to not contract the virus during training camp but said there was ‘virtually no social distancing’ in MMA training.
