Stefan Struve was scheduled to make his return tonight at UFC 175 but it has been reported that Struve just passed out in the locker room and he will no longer face Matt Mitrione.
We will update you with more information as it becomes available.
Update:
UFC President Dana White says, “He was hyperventilating. They think it was a panic attack, but we’re not risking it.”
Here is the official statement from the UFC:
Stefan Struve suffered a non-life-threatening, near-fainting spell backstage. Afterwards, the medical team did not feel he was fit to compete. With his health and safety in mind, he’s been removed from the card and is currently under the care of the medical staff. We will provide further updates as they become available.
