Reinier de Ridder Grateful Brendan Allen Took Short-Notice Fight at UFC Vancouver

RDR admitted he was “very disappointed” when Hernandez pulled out of their UFC Vancouver main event but praised the UFC’s quick response. “I was confident they’d find somebody…Costa was in the conversation for a bit, but I’m very happy Brendan stepped up,” he said. “It’s just cool to be here again.” With this win, as Chimaev has already called out RDR, he will secure a title shot.
