5 UFC fighters that are notorious for pulling out of fights

#1 Cain Velasquez

The Beast has received a lot of flack, online

The top spot goes to none other than the perpetrator of destruction inside the octagon - Cain Velasquez. Though Cain Velasquez has a dominant 14-2 record to his name, he has been trolled on the internet, time and again for “missing fight time” and pulling out of fights.

Velasquez recently pulled out of the UFC 207 event where he was slated to face Fabricio Werdum in a highly anticipated rematch. Rumours had it that the former heavyweight champion had opted out of the fight, something that he denied. In his interviews, Velasquez revealed that he had issues with his sciatic nerve and had already scheduled surgery for his malady, following the fight. A previous encounter between the two at UFC Fight Night 82 was scrapped as well when both Velasquez and Werdum opted out of it.
