Quick read
Asu Almabayev withdrew from the UFC Mexico City main event due to injury, leading to Lone'er Kavanagh stepping in on short notice against Brandon Moreno. The 26-year-old Kavanagh, originally scheduled for March 14 in Las Vegas, accepted the opportunity in Mexico City. This reshuffling ensured the event retained its biggest Mexican star in Moreno. The move highlights the flyweight division's depth and Kavanagh's readiness for big tests. Expect Kavanagh to enter title contention discussions after his performance, while Almabayev's recovery timeline remains unclear.
