Sara McMann announces injury withdrawal from UFC Vegas 35

One-time UFC title challenger Sara McMann on Tuesday announced her withdrawal from UFC Vegas 35 due to injury, leaving her scheduled opponent Ketlen Vieira without an opponent.

McMann declined to name her injury, but wrote on Instagram that it was a “reinjury” from the past.

“I’m hoping like hell it’s a quick healing process, but I’ll have to wait until I get the final prognosis to know,” she wrote. “The worst part is that I was so healthy and having a really great camp I know I’ll keep the gains I’ve made but I was really hoping to get the reward for all of the work I’ve put in the last few months.
