As a result, the fight was removed from the UFC on ESPN 16 tournament card and postponed indefinitely.
The coronavirus has once again interfered with the plans of UFC ranked light heavyweights Glover Teixeira and Thiago Santos. Due to a positive test for COVID-19, Brazilian fighters had to postpone the scheduled fight for the second time.
This was first reported by the Combate portal. On Tuesday, September 15, UFC chief Dana White confirmed Santos’ illness at a press conference after the Contender Series 33 tournament. He said that the Santos – Teixeira fight will not take place on October 3, as previously planned. A new date for the fight will be announced later, White said.
