Just yesterday, famous journalist and insider Ariel Helwani spoke about the upcoming UFC 300, noting that the promotion's management has a "rabbit in its hat." Today Ariel said that this very “rabbit in a hat” is the only high-profile fight at the anniversary tournament. And it won’t be the main event.
“I asked around about Izzy - I don’t think he’ll be there. There was talk of a fight between Izzy and Pereira, but it looks like it won't happen. They are talking about Masvidal, who said that he has not retired, but he will not be on this card. He wasn't talking about UFC 300, in case you were wondering. There was talk about Nate Diaz, but he won't be on this card. His plans for the future do not include the UFC, and in particular, UFC 300. So, if we look at UFC 300, I don’t see anything really worthy there. We've been talking about UFC 300 for so long, but they don't have anything that's worthy of a main event."
