Angela Hill announces positive COVID-19 test, out of Tecia Torres rematch at UFC 256

The rematch between Angela Hill and Tecia Torres will have to wait.

Hill (12-9 MMA, 6-9 UFC) announced on Sunday that she’s out of her scheduled strawweight fight with Torres (11-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC) on Saturday at UFC 256 after testing positive for COVID-19.
