Erin Blanchfield will at least be paid like it was a successful night at the office.
Blanchfield was read to walk to the cage for the UFC Vegas 107 main event when it was revealed that Maycee Barber would not be able to compete. That led to Saturday’s headliner at the UFC Apex being scrapped only moments after the promotion had run video to introduce the fight.
While it was a disappointing situation all the way around, Blanchfield’s management revealed that “Cold Blooded” will receive her show money and win bonus even though she did not fight.
