MMA Frenchman Taylor Lapilus forfeits UFC Fight Night in Paris

Six years after his last fight in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), the largest mixed martial arts (MMA) league in the world, Taylor Lapilus was to return to the organization on September 3. It was scheduled on the main card for the first UFC meeting in Paris, ahead of the mainline bouts between Robert Whittaker and Marvin Vettori and between Ciryl Gane and Tai Tuivasa. But the French bantamweight will not be able to face the German Khalid Taha. Tuesday August 23, he formalized his package for UFC Fight Night Paris. Taylor Lapilus explained to RMC Sport that he fractured his left hand during a “sparring” (training fight).
