UFC 159 takes place tonight (27), in Newark, United States, and features a light heavyweight title fight between Jon Jones e Chael Sonnen as the main attraction. However, the show's organizers had to deal with a problem on the preliminary card. Welterweight Nick Catone, who would have his second fight of the night against James Head, fell ill before entering the octagon and had to be taken to the hospital. He showed signs of dehydration.
Catone already had problems at the official weigh-in for the event, last Friday, when he weighed one kilo more than allowed. According to rumors coming from the United States, the fighter didn't feel well this Saturday in an attempt to eliminate extra weight.
