UFC Vegas 95 fight canceled: "Welp that was the only great fight" - Fans disappointed with UFC Vegas 95 reportedly losing its co-main event

UFC Vegas 95 has reportedly suffered a significant setback with the cancellation of the co-main event, which was set to be a bantamweight clash between Chris Gutierrez and Javid Basharat. The fight was highly anticipated as it pitted two rising stars in the division against each other.

Basharat, in particular, is seen as one of the most promising prospects in the UFC, and a matchup against a former top-15 contender like Gutierrez would have been a crucial test for him. Gutierrez, coming off a loss to Song Yadong, was looking to rebound against a formidable opponent.

Fans took to social media to express their disappointment over the cancellation of the fight.
