When Renan Barao backed out of UFC 177 after being hospitalized because of problems cutting weight, he was replaced only one day prior to the fight by Joe Soto. Soto, an ex-Bellator fighter, lasted 5 rounds against champion Dillashaw before getting knocked out.
The big talking point surrounding UFC 177 was about Barao backing out of the fight.
“I was dehydrating in the bathtub,” Barao explained through a translator. “I feinted, I hit my head, I was taken to the hospital.I was fine,” Barao added. “My weight was around regular what I come in for fight week. Everything was fine, everything was going great the whole week. The whole thing was I hit my head in the bathtub and that’s where it all went down.”

Do you think it was acceptable for Barao to back out only one day before?
