Askar Askar is no longer on the UFC roster. Originally scheduled to fight Cody Stamann at UFC Fight Night 184 this past Saturday, Askar (11-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) was removed from the fight hours before the event due to abnormalities discovered during his pre-fight medical testing. A person with knowledge of the situation confirmed his release to MMA Junkie on Tuesday, noting the abnormalities weren’t related to COVID-19 or drug testing. Askar will seek medical clearance this week with the hopes of re-signing with the UFC soon. TSN was the first to report Askar’s departure. Askar took the fight against Stamann, replacing Andre Ewell on less than one week’s notice
