UFC 315 might already be cursed before a single punch has been thrown. The marquee event, headlined by Belal Muhammad and Jack Della Maddalena, has been criticized for its lackluster appeal. But what if I told you it’s now facing an even bigger setback? Shocking, right? Sources from Joel Alvarez’s camp have confirmed that the fighter who was supposed to face French slugger Benoit Saint-Denis might now be unable to step into the Octagon at all. This unexpected turn of events is just another blow to an already underwhelming card.
The MMA community was already attacking UFC 315 for being subpar, but the matters just got worse as one of the most anticipated fights on the entire card might have been cancelled. As per ‘Knockout Alerts’, Joel Alvarez is rumoured to be out of his contest against Benoit Saint-Denis at UFC 315. The official announcement is yet to be made, but reputable outlets like La Sueur and reporter Marcel Dorff later confirmed the news as true.
The cancellation deals a severe blow to the UFC 315 lineup, as this was one of the fights that could have brought some heat to the game. ‘El Fenomeno’ boasted a 100% finishing ratio across his 22 victories, and ‘God Of War’ is riding a wave to prove his worth inside the Octagon yet again. This matchup had all the ingredients for a fireworks-filled showdown, but it was not meant to be.
