With just four days until UFC 227, the event is down one fight. The UFC announced tonight that the women’s bantamweight bout between former title challenger Bethe Correia and Irene Aldana has been pulled from the card after Correia was forced to withdraw due to injury. The fight won’t be replaced. UFC 227, which takes place Saturday at Staples Center in Los Angeles and airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and UFC Fight Pass, will proceed with 12 bouts. This marks the second time that a fight between the Brazilian Correia (10-3-1 MMA, 4-3-1 UFC) and Mexican Aldana (8-4 MMA, 1-2 UFC) has been scrapped. The two originally were set for a fight in January that was called off after Correia was injured
