Maryna Moroz has suffered a foot/ankle injury and has been pulled from UFC Fight Night Buenos Aires, where she was supposed to be fighting Ariane Lipski.
The fighter took to Instagram to reveal the news:
There is no word at this time as to how long Moroz is going to be out of action for, but more should be known as the injury heals up. Lipski is expected to remain on the card at this time, as the UFC has just under three weeks to find her a replacement opponent.
Lipski (11-3-0) is going to be making her UFC debut in this encounter and does so on the strength of a nine fight winning streak. Lipski is a former KSW MMA Women’s Flyweight Champion, defeating Diana Belbita at KSW 39 to claim the gold. Lipski has defeated one UFC veteran prior to signing with the promotion and that win came over Sheila Gaff at KSW 36.
UFC Fight Night Buenos Aires takes place on Saturday, November 17 from Luna Park in Buenos Aires, Argentina with Neil Magny and Santiago Ponzinibbio headlining. Fightful is providing live coverage of the event, which airs live on Fox Sports 1.
