UFC FN 75: Norifumi Yamamoto vs. Matt Hobar Pulled From The Card

Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto

By FCF Staff

UFC Fight Night 75 has lost one of its bouts, just a couple of days out from the September 27th card, as Norifumi Yamamoto and Matt Hobar will no longer fight.

The promotion has announced that both bantamweights have incurred injuries, and that the fight has been cancelled.

Yamamoto (18-6) hasn’t fought since February when his bout with Roman Salazar was declared a no contest, due to an accidental eye poke to the latter.

Hobar (9-3), meanwhile, was decisioned by Sergio Pettis in December.

UFC FN 75 will be hosted by Saitama, Japan, and in the main event, Josh Barnett will take on fellow heavyweight contender, Roy Nelson.
