Waterson says undisclosed injury that scrapped Ribas bout could be ‘career-ending’ if not dealt with

Michelle Waterson is eager to fight again, but that may have to wait until the ‘Karate Hottie’ can deal with what she says could be a ‘career-ending’ injury.

Waterson was set to return to the Octagon and meet Amanda Ribas at UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs. Daukaus at the end of the month. Unfortunately, she was forced to withdraw because of an undisclosed injury and the fight was postponed to UFC 274, the pay-per-view event scheduled to take place on May 7 at the Footprint Center in Phoenix.

However, it appears as though the new date could be in jeopardy.
