UFC Boston has lost its highly anticipated co-main event.
Zabit Magomedsharipov is out of his featherweight bout against Calvin Kattar scheduled for Oct. 18 at TD Garden, MMA Junkie reported Friday. It is unclear why Magomedsharipov has been forced off the card.
Instead of finding a replacement to fight Kattar in Boston, the Magomedsharipov vs. Kattar fight is expected to be placed on different card, according to the report. UFC Moscow is currently the front-runner, but nothing has been finalized at this time.
Magomedsharipov has made waves ever since signing with the UFC in 2017.
