Aspen Ladd's entire statement can be read below. View this post on Instagram Unfortunately, for the first time in my career I'm being pulled due to injury. This is me right now, finally home after an #mri today and a long talk with a very good doctor. So here's the timeline, I got injured on my last hard day of training last week but still planned on toughing it out and fighting, I didn't realize quite how bad it was. I have been training on it since the initial injury to the best of my abilities and my weight was( is) super low already. So I was thinking I had this. Anyways, I had planned on getting a cortisone shot, and when I showed up to that appointment yesterday the concerned doc ultrasounded my knee, then booked the #mri stat . Turns out I just have a REALLY high pain tolerance. I have 2 grade 3 tears and a couple other injuries going on. I'll know later this week Iif surgery is in my future, but hope to be back in the cage before the end of the year. Honesty is the best policy so here you go, sucks because I feel phenomenal otherwise #shithappens #timetofixit #ufc A post shared by Aspen Ladd (@aspenladd) on Jun 19, 2020 at 5:55pm PDTAspen Ladd was first scheduled to fight Juliana Pena but since the latter had to pull out of the fight she got a new opponent in Sara McMann. The fight was an important one for Aspen Ladd who lost a massive momentum by losing to Germaine De Randamie. It was an option for her to regain all of the lost force behind her name.Now, she will most probably sit out the year on sidelines. Finding a replacement would be tough in these times, given there is a pandemic and most fighters can't travel in or out of the United States.Aspen Ladd is still one of the brightest MMA prospects and is for sure someone who will bounce back from this stronger than before. The question, for now, is by when will she return in a division which currently simply has no contenders for the champion, Amanda Nunes.
