The UFC comeback event on Saturday will feature one less match up after middleweight fighter Jacaré Souza tested positive for coronavirus. Souza, 40, dropped from the UFC 249 preliminary card after he and two of his corner men tested positive for COVID-19, despite showing no symptoms, the UFC said in a statement Friday. Tony Ferguson and fellow lightweight contender Justin Gaethje will headline the mixed martial arts card behind closed doors at Veterans Memorial Arena. The fight is slated to take place Saturday at 10 p.m. The Associated Press contributed to this report.
