Thibault Gouti Out Of UFC Fight Night 110 Due To Illness
MMA Junkie reports that Thibault Gouti (11-3 MMA, 0-3 UFC) is out of a lightweight fight with Dong Hyun Kim at tonight’s UFC Fight Night 110 due to illness. The fight was set to open the early preliminary card on UFC Fight Pass, which happens before the FS1 main card. The event happens in Auckland, New Zealand. It’s unknown what Gouti’s illness is, as he made 154 pounds at the weigh-ins yesterday without any apparent issues.
The UFC said in a statement: “On the advice of physicians, and with the athlete’s health and safety in mind, UFC has removed Thibault Gouti from his bout today against Dong Hyun Kim at ‘UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Hunt’ in Auckland, New Zealand due to illness. ‘UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Hunt’ will proceed with 11 bouts.“
