An eye infection ultimately kept Nasrat Haqparast from competing at UFC Fight Night 127 in London on Saturday.
The UFC’s statement is as follows:
Based on advice from the UFC medical team on Saturday morning, Nasrat Haqparast was deemed unfit to fight due to an infectious eye condition and his bout against Nad Narimani has been canceled.
Haqparast, meanwhile, saw an eight-bout winning streak come to an end in his Octagon debut at UFC Fight Night 118, where he dropped a three-round verdict against Marcin Held.
Haqparast released a statement via Instagram following the cancellation.
