Surprising Illness Forces Rodolfo Bellato Off of UFC Vegas 106

Rodolfo Bellato’s bout with Paul Craig was canceled because of a very bizarre and rare reason.

Light heavyweights Bellato and Craig were expected to throw down in the co-main event of this past weekend’s show, UFC Vegas 106. Both men represented two different eras of the division, with their matchup being viewed as a possible passing of the torch moment. Craig is currently riding a three-fight losing streak, going 1-3 in his past four bouts since dropping to middleweight in 2023. Following this trio of setbacks, “Bearjew” made the decision to move back up to 205-lb.
