The UCA Jr Middleweight Championship title fight between Mike Delery, Los Angeles Police Dept and Dusty Rodriguez, Santa Monica Fire Dept was canceled at the scale this morning. The UCA Welterweight Champion Mike Delery was moving up to the Jr Middleweight division to take on the #1 ranked Dusty Rodriguez in an attempt to pick up his 2nd title. In a stunning development the #1 ranked Rodriguez was unable to attend the official weigh in due to a family obligation and safety concerns about the weigh in. Rodriguez said, “I will not weigh in the day of the fight. Its unhealthy for anyone to wait until a few hours before competing without proper hydration and food intake” Delery came in 3 pounds under the contracted weight of 154 pounds. The UCA Jr Middleweight title will remain vacant.
