UFC Vegas 70 was a night that delivered. The main event between Ryan Spann and Nikita Krylov was canceled due to an unfortunate event. According to Megan Olivi, the main event was off as Nikita Krylov was ill. He came to the UFC facility earlier to try and work with the UFC medical team as he received fluids. For around 90 minutes they tried to get his health to a better condition, but unfortunately his health couldn’t improve. Nonetheless, here are all the results from last night at UFC Vegas 70 for those who missed out.
