The website didn't receive confirmation on the severity of Holloway's injury. The champion successfully defended this title by defeating Jose Aldo by third-round TKO during his last fight in December.
Ironically, Edgar was ruled out of the original fight planned against Holloway for UFC 218 after suffering a broken orbital bone during training.
UFC has not confirmed the report nor given any details about a potential replacement main event fight for the upcoming pay-per-view.
