Event: GAMMA#961 Augustus v Shane     
Date:   Aug 27, 2022

Shane Raffington really struggled with his weight cut for this fight. After coming in at 188.3, he had two hours to cut the additional weight. He was unable to do so and as a result, his fight with Aurelius Augustus was cancelled.
So, because the bout was cancelled, Aurelius Augustus retains his title.
