According to reports, neither Anthony Pettis nor Paul Felder will replace Max Holloway as the main event of UFC 223. The reports come after Max Holloway was deemed unfit to fight by the New York State Athletic Commission earlier today.
Anthony Pettis weighed in Fridaymorning, even though his fight with Michael Chiesa was called off. Pettis weighed in at 155.2lbs, missing the championship weight by 0.2lbs. According to NYSAC rules, Pettis should have received 2 hours to make weight if he was fighting for the championship.
Before Pettis could weigh-in again, the commission took the scale away and closed the weigh-ins.
