Report: Maycee Barber out of fight against Erin Blanchfield at UFC 269

A fight between two promising prospects in the flyweight division is off.

Maycee Barber has withdrawn from her upcoming fight against Erin Blanchfield at UFC 269, per a report from Nolan King of MMA Junkie. The reason for her withdrawal has not been disclosed yet. Blanchfield will remain on the card and has reportedly received a short-notice replacement that is soon-to-be finalized.

Barber was set to make her third Octagon appearance this year. The No. 13 ranked flyweight took a year off to recover from a knee injury sustained in her fight against Roxanne Modafferi at UFC 246, where she suffered the first loss of her professional career.
