The UFC 177 fight card underwent a massive transformation just 24 hours prior to its start in Sacramento, Calif., on Saturday.
Main event fighter Renan Barao and undercard fighter Henry Cejudo each had complications related to their weight cutting, forcing both off of the car. As a result, two under card bouts were cancelled and UFC debutant Joe Soto was slotted into the UFC 177 main event.
