Nikita Krylov Ill, Out of UFC Vegas 70 Main Event

UFC Vegas 70’s light heavyweight main event between Nikita Krylov and Ryan Spann has been cancelled just hours before the fight was supposed to happen due to Krylov falling ill. The sixth ranked light heavyweight contender had arrived to the UFC Apex early as he worked with the UFC medical team to see if they could get him fit to fight, unfortunately he was deemed unfit to go out just after the main card broadcast had begun.

Krylov was expected to face off against the eighth-ranked light heavyweight contender, Ryan Spann.
