The UFC announced Friday that Nik Lentz has withdrawn from his scheduled lightweight bout with Will Brooks at UFC 216 on Saturday due to "medical issues."
Combat Press reported that Lentz's withdrawal had to do with complications brought on by attempting to cut weight.
There will be no replacement fight added to the card in the wake of the cancellation, but according to Marc Raimondi of MMA Fighting, Matt Schnell vs. Marco Beltran will move up from the UFC Fight Pass card to the FX card.
The 33-year-old Lentz is a highly experienced fighter who boasts a career professional record of 27-8-2.
