UFC 295 tickets: How to get a refund after Jon Jones injured
By Amy Kaplan
On Tuesday night UFC president Dana White announced the devastating news that UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones was injured and out of his fight with Stipe Miocic. Instead of the heavyweight title fight, fans will get an interim heavyweight title fight between Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall.
Needless to say, it's an incredible back-up fight but not the one that fans were hoping to see.
After the news broke, several fans fans too to Twitter to rant about cost of the tickets and how they can get a refund.

Can I get a refund for my UFC 295 ticket?
Here's how you can get a refund on those tickets if you're one of the people itching to unload them now.
One thing fans must remember is that every card always has the disclaimer that "card is subject to chage" so a fight card falling apart might not be enough of a reason to request a refund. For many fans who bought through third party sellers, you may not be eligible for a refund at all.
You'll need to check the return policy for your specific ticket seller to get exact refund instructions.
According to UFC, all tickets are nonrefundable though, in the past, the UFC has offered refunds with significant card changes.
Right now the cheapest seats for UFC 295 are still going for $426, but that's a far cry from the $900 base price they were sitting at just a few days ago.
Don't forget, this is still an incredible card, so don't sleep on it just because Jones is not fighting.
