The main event of the UFC Vegas 107 card was canceled at the last possible moment.
Maycee Barber and Erin Blanchfield were set to face off in a clash of ranked flyweights on Saturday in Las Vegas, to the point that the ESPN stream aired their pre-fight feature with interviews from both fighters. Once the video was done, a somber booth of broadcasters explained that Barber wasn’t ready to fight.

One commercial break later, they announced the fight had been canceled due to a “last-minute medical issue” for Barber, who couldn’t receive medical clearance to enter the Octagon. Blanchfield later said in an interview that UFC executive Hunter Campbell told her that Barber had suffered a seizure.
The day before the fight, Barber missed weight by a half-pound and was forced to forfeit 20% of her purse to Blanchfield, part of a host of weight-related issues on the card for the UFC.
