A positive COVID-19 test forced Irene Aldana out of her first main event booking in the UFC. Aldana, a Mexican bantamweight contender, withdrew from UFC on ESPN+ 31, causing her showdown with former champion Holly Holm to be postponed. UFC president Dana White announced the news earlier Wednesday, but reasons for the switch weren’t disclosed until hours later, with Aldana (12-5 MMA, 5-3 UFC) sharing on Instagram that her withdrawal was the result of contracting coronavirus.
