Leah McCourt ‘devastated’ to pull out of Bellator 302 fight against Sinead Kavanagh

The upcoming Bellator 302 card in Belfast wants a brand new co-main occasion after Leah McCourt was pressured to drag out of her struggle with Sinead Kavanagh.

With McCourt out of the March 22 occasion, the struggle with Kavanagh has been pulled from the cardboard, a number of folks with data of the shift advised MMA Combating on Tuesday following an preliminary report from Severe MMA.

Following information that the struggle had been cancelled, McCourt issued a prolonged assertion addressing the harm that may forestall her from competing in March.

“Devastated to have to put in writing this and allow you to know throughout a sparring accident, I sustained a damaged rib and torn indirect,” McCourt wrote on Twitter. “I can’t get medically cleared to struggle nor may I bodily have the ability to struggle in Belfast. This may increasingly require surgical procedure and can know extra within the subsequent few weeks. The muscle has been ripped from the bone and the ache is excruciating. After I didn’t get the title struggle, I requested what struggle wished, it was this so particularly dissatisfied.

“I don’t perceive the heartbreak and ache of circumstances of every thing that’s occurred thus far this 12 months, however I belief God’s plan that every one this stuff are a part of one thing massive and higher forward. I’ve fought with torn ligaments, blown out knees, every thing, and that is the primary time an harm has been too severe to have the ability to struggle, as I [was] warned the break may puncture an organ if I don’t do as [the] surgeon has requested and have whole relaxation. I’ll do every thing I can to return as quickly as doable.”

Learn McCourt’s full assertion under:

It’s an unlucky blow to the primary Bellator card underneath the PFL banner because the promotion was offered in late 2023. It’s even worse for McCourt, who was promised a title shot in opposition to Bellator featherweight champion Cris Cyborg earlier than the sale was finalized. Cyborg has been rumored for an eventual showdown with PFL featherweight champion Larissa Pacheco, however there’s no phrase when that matchup may truly occur.

The PFL is not going to function a girls’s featherweight division within the season-long event format in 2024, so extra of these fighters will seemingly seem in Bellator all year long.

That leaves McCourt in limbo as she recovers from her harm with no clear signal when she may compete once more – or what it should take to ultimately earn a title shot.

Bellator officers haven’t made any announcement relating to the change to the upcoming card in Belfast, or if Kavanagh may probably face a brand new opponent with McCourt sidelined.

Bellator 302 is headlined by a light-weight heavyweight title struggle as Corey Anderson clashes with Karl Moore. The title struggle crowns a brand new champion at 205 kilos after Vadim Nemkov vacated the belt to maneuver to heavyweight.
