UFC 205, on paper, is the best card to have been assembled. Bigger than UFC 100, bigger than UFC 200, there are fights on the Fight Pass prelims that could headline a Fight Night card or be featured on a PPV card.
Not too long ago, the best card ever took a hit. Rashad Evans was informed that he would not be licensed due to an undisclosed medical issue.
This all played out while Tim Kennedy was en route to New York City. Once he landed, he was made aware that he no longer had a fight. What does Tim do? He took to twitter to see if someone wanted to get into a fist fight.
Just landed in New York. It sounds like my fight with @SugaRashadEvans is off. I do not have official word. #ufc205

@SpiderAnderson was curious if you had any plans November 12? Want to meet me in New York at Madison Square Garden?

@nickdiaz209 UFC 205 might need your help. Not sure if you want to come to New York this weekend. I heard somebody needs an opponent…

@bisping I heard you were going to be in New York are at Madison Square Garden for UFC 205. Feel like trying to redeem a beatdown you got?

Tim Kennedy has been out of competition for over 2 years. No clue if the UFC will find a replacement; the company has found late replacements in shorter time periods.
