Cynthia Calvillo wanted her fight with Lauren Murphy rescheduled as soon as possible, but it seems the promotion has other ideas.
After a long training camp, Calvillo was getting ready to face Murphy on Fight Island in a pivotal 125-pound matchup at UFC 254. Then a positive COVID-19 test scratched her from the event.
Murphy went on to face newcomer Liliya Shakirova, and in the second round she picked up her first submission win and fourth consecutive victory.
Calvillo now faces Katlyn Chookagian at UFC 255 on Nov.
