My last fight camp, I had a procedure in September just to get through it and step in that Octagon the beginning of October. This camp\u2026 it\u2019s just been one thing after another.<br \/>I\u2019m a competitor through and through, but I also have to take care of my health if I want to keep doing this the right way.<br \/>So yeah\u2026 I\u2019m gutted to say I have to withdraw from this fight. Apologies to the fans, @ufc and my opponent @norma_dumont_mma I\u2019ll be back, and I still would love to share that Octagon with Norma when the time\u2019s right. I\u2019m hoping she gets a replacement opponent and her opportunity to compete isn\u2019t stripped.<br \/>Thank you to everyone who rides with me through the highs and the lows.
