UFC 260 update: Young-Morales not scrapped yet, but two other fights are off

We have an update to the Shane Young vs. Omar Morales cancellation news from earlier in the week. The good news is that Young vs. Morales is not off of UFC 260, but that doesn’t mean they’re out of the woods.

Young will need to clear regular fight week testing in order for the Morales fight to remain intact. He was a close contact to both Brad Riddell and Alex Volkanovski, who were removed from their respective fights due to COVID protocols. Volkanovski confirmed that he had tested positive for the virus and won’t fight Brian Ortega as scheduled this Saturday.
