Fight fans will have to wait a little longer for the welterweight showdown between Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone and former 170-pound champion Robbie Lawler , as an injury has forced Cerrone out of their UFC 213 bout on July 8. The bout is expected to be rescheduled, but no new date has been set. In a championship doubleheader headlining UFC 213 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Amanda Nunes defends her UFC women's bantamweight title against Valentina Shevchenko , and Yoel Romero meets Robert Whittaker for the interim UFC middleweight crown.
