UFC veteran Kelvin Gastelum has shared his reaction to Joe Pyfer’s late UFC Mexico City withdrawal last weekend.
As we know, Kelvin Gastelum has been around for a long time in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. In that time, he’s achieved some great things and he’s had some remarkable fights. With that being said, he hasn’t always come up on the winning side – and that’s been especially true across his latest string of bouts.

Still, Gastelum is willing to get in there with just about anyone. He wants to prove that he still has what it takes to compete at the elite level and you won’t find many people who will begrudge him of that. Last weekend, he was set to go toe to toe with Joe Pyfer as part of the main card at UFC Mexico City.
Unfortunately, Pyfer pulled out of the fight at the last minute as a result of an illness, confusing many. Gastelum posted the following to social media which actually showed his initial reaction when it all went down.
I got the call that my opponent got sick and had to pull out the fight.
Obviously I’m gutted to the core about this situation that is out of my control but Wish my opponent all the best in the future. #OAM4G
