The main event for UFC 297 may be looking great, nevertheless, the same thing cannot be said for the fight card. The UFC CEO is getting ready for UFC 297, but he’s been facing a lot of challenges.

Now, yet another fight had to be canceled for the first PPV of the year.

Dana White found himself in another problematic situation after Carlos Ulberg, who was scheduled to face Dominick Reyes, pulled out of the first 2024 pay-per-view due to an injury. And the fans are not happy about it. Let’s take a look.

Former one-time UFC title challenger Dominick Reyes recently announced that his fight against Carlos Ulberg had been canceled. This was due to an injury suffered by the New Zealand fighter.
