Orion Cosce vs. Blood Diamond scrapped from UFC 275 in Singapore
UFC 275 has lost a welterweight matchup.
Orion Cosce (7-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) vs. Blood Diamond (3-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) has been scratched from the June 11 event in Singapore. The news was first reported by BJPenn.com.

Unfortunately the news is true that my fight has been cancelled for #ufc275 Gonna keep training and stay ready for the next opportunity. Hopefully we can get rebooked as soon as Mathetha is healthy or someone else.
Trying to fight a couple times this summer. All good— Orion Cosce (@GalaxyCosce) May 25, 2022
