— Jed I. Goodman © (@jedigoodman) June 30, 2024A lot went into the making of the eventual matchup for the co-main event at UFC 303.
Khalil Rountree and Jamahal Hill were the originally scheduled co-main event for UFC 303 at the T-Mobile Arena on Saturday before Rountree was forced out due to a failed drug test. Carlos Ulberg stepped in to replace Rountree but that matchup was eventually scrapped entirely when both Hill and Ulberg withdrew from the card.
