Jessica Aguilar pulled from UFC Austin following injury to Livia Renata Souza

A planned strawweight fight between former WSOF champion Jessica Aguilar and ex-Invicta titleholder Livia Renata Souza will have to wait a little bit longer.

Souza withdrew from this Sunday’s UFC Fight Night 126 main card due to a right hand injury. Aguilar will not get a replacement opponent, so she’s also been removed from the card.

“Everything happens for a reason,” Aguilar said to MMA Fighting. “You always see the good in things, even when it’s not a good situation. It will help you stay focused and overcome whatever it is you going through.
