Daly (16-6) would have been aiming for her third win in the UFC. The 28-year-old Straight Blast Gym product overcame Ericka Almeida last October in Dublin.
That win saw Daly — who debuted in the UFC in December 2014 with a first-round submission of Alex Chambers — bounce back from a loss against Rando Markos.
John Morgan reports that the UFC are currently searching for a new opponent for Waterson.
