While Liana is forced to back out from the fight, her opponent Cortney Casey insists on fighting her and will wait for the matchup to be rescheduled. Cortney was looking to bounce back from her loss against JJ Aldrich via submission in the third round in 2021. Another loss would make it three consecutive losses for the flyweight fighter. She has a record of 9-9-0 in her career. Cortney has been fighting in the UFC since 2015.

With the flyweight matchup removed from the card, the card has only 12 fights on its card.
