The most anticipated fight in MMA this year is scheduled to take place on July 11 in Las Vegas, but the fight is now in jeopardy following featherweight champion suffering a rib injury in training on Tuesday.
The injury was first reported by UFC Nederland and later reported by Globo.
Following the news of the injury by Aldo, many fighters sent out tweets and Instagram post saying they would be ready to set up if the UFC needed them. UFC President Dana White responded to the rumors by writing “relax everybody.”
As of Tuesday night, the UFC has not released a statement on whether Aldo will remain on the card or if he is off the event.
