The lineup for next month's UFC 314 pay-per-view has taken a big hit.
Mixed martial arts' leading promotion will be back in Florida soon to host another April numbered event from inside Miami's Kaseya Center.
The March PPV in Las Vegas saw multiple bouts struck off the card on fight day due to illness. Now, the injury curse has reared its head again in 2025, with one of the most intriguing matchups booked for UFC 314 falling through.
After establishing himself as one of the fastest-rising names on MMA's biggest stage, Carlos Prates was gearing up for a showdown with longtime welterweight contender Geoff Neal.
But during the broadcast for Saturday's UFC Mexico event, it was announced that "Handz of Steel" has been forced to withdraw, taking both him and Prates off the April 12 lineup.

It remains to be seen what comes next for Prates after this cancellation, but play-by-play commentator Jon Anik implied news regarding that is on the way.
