UFC 226 is now available on Amazon Prime.

The curse of International Fight Week continued on Thursday, just a day after Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight champion Max Holloway was forced out of the co-main event of UFC 226 with concussion-like symptoms. Light heavyweight titleholder Daniel Cormier, who takes on heavyweight kingpin Stipe Miocic on Saturday’s headline fight, tripped while leaving the dais following a press conference and left with a noticeable limp.
