Today at the UFC 235 press conference, Dana White shocked many when he announced that the fight between Holly Holm and Aspen Ladd had been canceled. He said that they were actively looking for different fights for both of them and neither would compete on March 2nd, but did not give a reason as to why the bout came apart. Ladd took to Twitter right away to state that it was Holm who pulled out, not her:
It was assumed that Holm was out due to injury, as is usually the case in these situations. But according to Holm’s manager Lenny Fresquez, that’s not the case.
