Dominick Reyes, UFC light heavyweight, explained why his fight with Carlos Ulberg canceled for the second time.

“The Lord tests us, and now I have to go through another difficult test. Carlos and I were supposed to fight on January 20th. He dropped out, I don’t know why. It's probably an injury, but he never said what it was. And then I developed blood clots. Deep vein thrombosis. So yes, I will be away for a while. I'm lucky to be alive today - that's always nice. We identified the problem at an early stage, so we managed to avoid an embolism. My leg hurt and I went for a massage because I thought it was a sprain. And a massage is the worst thing that could be done in this situation. I’m lucky that I didn’t die on the massage table,” the fighter said.
