Tom Breese didn’t fight as planned at UFC Fight Night 107 on Saturday because he wasn’t sure if he was ready to compete.
Breese’s last-minute withdrawal from the event, which took place at The O2 Arena in London, England, came out of the blue. UFC commentators John Gooden and Dan Hardy opened up the UFC Fight Pass broadcast with the announcement that his fight with Oluwale Bamgbose had been scrapped, offering no details other than the fact that Breese was deemed “medically unfit to fight.” UFC officials later confirmed that Breese withdrew from the fight and wasn’t pulled from the card by the organization.
