The UFC Fight Night 186 lineup has taken another hit.

The women’s strawweight fight between Angela Hill and Ashley Yoder scheduled for tonight’s main card has been canceled.

Two people with knowledge of the situation informed MMA Junkie of the cancellation Saturday but asked to remain anonymous. One person stated the cancellation was a result of a positive COVID-19 test from Yoder’s camp. A UFC press release later stated it was “due to COVID-19 protocols.”

The promotion is looking to rebook the matchup for UFC Fight Night 187 on March 13.

The fight is the third UFC Fight Night 186 bout canceled due to COVID-19. Raoni Barcelos vs. Marcelo Rojo and William Knight vs. Alonzo Menifield were also canceled during fight week.

UFC Fight Night 186 takes place Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The card streams on ESPN+.

With the cancellation, the UFC Fight Night 186 lineup now includes:
