NYSAC pulls Pearl Gonzalez from UFC card due to breast implants

Things just got even more bizarre in Buffalo.

Minutes after Daniel Cormier controversially made weight on his second attempt, the New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) pulled Pearl Gonzalez from UFC 210 on Friday morning because she has breast implants, sources told MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani. The commission does not allow fighters to compete with implants, per their rules.

Gonzalez was supposed to face Cynthia Calvillo on the UFC 210 main card Saturday night at KeyBank Arena.

Gonzalez, 30, cut weight and made the strawweight limit Friday morning without incident, assuming the fight was on.
