Something happened to Diego, no information yet but the fight is off.
Edit: Ariel says something is wrong with Hettes, the brazilian broadcaster said something happened to Diego, guess we wait for the truth.

Cowboy should just be on standby at all events. He doesn't even have to fight someone, I'll just watch him drink beer
Cowboy Q&A in the middle of the octagon sponsored by Budweiser to replace any cancelled fights. Sounds good to me.
Feel pretty bad for Brandao, guy had faulty scales yesterday so he must've just killed himself cutting down to 142, and now the fight isn't happening anyway. Sucks.

Diego is the one who comes in looking extra intense at a weirdly low weight, but Hettes is the guy who ends up dropping out. Didn't see that one coming. I was really wondering wtf was up with Diego at 142. That guy is supposed to generally have difficulties with the cut.
Faulty scales used in his cut

Weird, the brazilian broadcast said something happened to Diego.
I guess we'll know the truth soon enough.
Goddammit, that was my flair bet.
Also, so if they say Gastelum got the flu, now Hettes has it, I wonder how many people are sick out there...
God damned anti vaccinationist fighters!
I know that was a joke, but all those NHL players did get the mumps this year. The all ended up looking like Sloth from The Goonies.
It was a good flair bet!
make it over a diff bout
they missed the mark on the flu vaccinations this year so it wouldn't matter if they did or didn't get the shot.
Yeah I got the shot, but I also got the flu big time last week.
it seems the culprit was a strain they predicted, h3n2, that then mutated after they developed the vaccine.

contracted the flu
First CM Punk and now the flu. The UFC is totally out of control.

Hettes might have fainted according to rumors. fighters dropping like flies over there.
Hopefully this causes him to retire.
Brandao/Thatch in Colorado confirmed.
he probably saw McGregor in the crowd and starting have nightmares and remembered when mcgregor took his skinny brazilian head clean off.
Ummm you got the wrong guy. Hettes is the one that pulled out not Brandao.
probably had flash backs of conor mcgregor kicking his ass and remembered mcgoat is #1
Cowboy?
He is driving to the arena now, but may be late since he is stopping to drink Budweiser with fans along the way.
And hanging out with rappers.
