White said that Tsarukyan called at 1 a.m. and said he didn't feel he'd be able to compete. Moicano, who was going to fight Beneil Dariush on the main card, stepped in and took the fight. He made the 155-pound championship weight limit.
Moicano has won four in a row and six of his last seven. He is coming off of a second-round TKO of Benoit Saint Denis. His only loss in the last seven was a decision to Rafael dos Anjos in a 160-pound catchweight bout at UFC 272 in Las Vegas on March 5, 2022.
White did not say whether Dariush would remain on the card or what fight would replace Moicano-Dariush on the main card.
Tsarukyan earned the title shot at UFC 300 on April 13 in Las Vegas when he scored a split decision victory over former champion Charles Oliveira. He was eager to reverse the outcome of a 2019 bout against Makhachev in Saint Petersburg, Russia, which Makhachev won by split decision.
