Justin Gaethje vs. Ozzy Dugulubgov WSOF 33 title fight tonight cancelled due to illness

With little time to spare, Ozzy Dugulubgov will be unable to make the walk to the cage tonight (Fri., Oct. 7, 2016) at WSOF 33 live on NBCSN from the Municipal Auditorium Arena in Kansas City, Missouri. Dugulubgov, who was scheduled to take on World Series of Fighting (WSOF) lightweight champion Justijn Gaethje in the main event, experienced headaches and low blood pressure before being pulled from the event, per a report by MMA Fighting.

According to WSOF president Ray Sefo, Gaethje, despite not competing, will still get paid. The undefeated 27-year-old was looking to defend his 155-pound title for the fifth-straight time.
