UFC Removes Planned August Event from Schedule, UFC 215 to Be Held September 9

The Ultimate Fighting Championship has scrapped its planned August event from the schedule and will now hold UFC 215 at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, on September 9.

That same date and venue was set to be host for UFC 216, but the UFC announced via its official website that that is no longer the plan, as the Review Journal's Adam Hill confirmed the switch-up on Monday:

So much for that August visit to Seattle for UFC 215. Edmonton's UFC 216 card in Sept. will now be called UFC 215.
