Mickey Gall will no longer enter the octagon this Saturday at UFC Vegas 121, but Sedriques Dumas will remain on the card against Luis Hernandez, the promotion announced Thursday.
According to the UFC, Gall withdrew from the card due to medical issues. Gall, who was set to make his first appearance in nearly two years, explained his scratch as something that popped up on his fight week medicals, but he was fine.
Hernandez (8-0) signed with the UFC earlier this month after a second-round rear-naked choke
finish of Hugo Guillon on Dana White’s Contender Series. He will re-enter the octagon 11 days later, one of the fastest turnarounds in DWCS history.
Dumas (10-5) will attempt to snap a four-fight winless skid, including a trio of stoppage defeats. He hasn’t won a fight since August 2024, when he won a unanimous decision against Denis Tiuliulin.
UFC Vegas 121 will go on with 12 bouts, topped by a bantamweight main event between Raul Rosas Jr. and Raoni Barcelos. The co-main event slot features jiu-jitsu expert Rodolfo Vieira taking on Robert Bryczek in a 185-pound clash.
