Sijara Eubanks and Karol Rosa have officially been pulled from UFC Vegas 9.
Originally, the bantamweights were set to clash at this weekend’s show; however, Rosa was forced to pull out of the fight due to complications with cutting weight. Rosa is a replacement for Macy Chiasson, who had to withdraw from the show due to medical reasons. Eubanks is now scheduled to compete on next Saturday’s fight night show against Julia Avila.
The bantamweight recently scored a victory over Gina Mazany and is currently on a four-fight winning streak, also beating Ashley Deen (via KO at HD MMA 13), Alexa Conners (via TKO at Invicta FC 32), and Pannie Kianzad (via unanimous decision at UFC 239). Prior to her debut at UFC 239, the California native competed in HD MMA and Invicta Fighting Championships. Avila’s professional record currently stands at 8 wins and 1 loss.
