The main event of the UFC 296 card was meant to highlight Giga Chikadze vs Josh Emmett in the featherweight division. This, however, changed as Chiladze pulled out of the fight due to a groin injury.
But, the fans are getting a replacement fight, which is just as interesting. Bryce ‘Thug Nasty’ Mitchell stepped on short notice, facing off against Emmett at UFC 296. The Arkansaw native is an absolute madman so the fight would most likely be a banger.
