Nicco Montaño will not fight at UFC 228 tomorrow, after being hospitalized this morning. Valentina Shevchenko just made weight in Dallas, but I’m told the co-main event is off.

It seems that Nicco Montano will not defend her Ultimate Fighting Championship flyweight crown Saturday at UFC 228.
According to multiple reports, Montano was hospitalized in Dallas prior to Friday’s weigh-ins for undisclosed reasons and has been pulled from the card. It is unclear at the time of this writing if her opponent, Valentina Shevchenko will remain on the bill.
