British light heavyweight Tom Blackledge has been forced to withdraw
from a meeting with “The Ultimate Fighter 10” veteran James McSweeney and will be replaced by UFC newcomer Fabio Maldonado.
Sources close to the event today informed MMAjunkie.com of the preliminary card switch after Sherdog.com
first reported it late Tuesday night.
UFC 120 takes place Oct. 16 at London’s O2 Arena and airs in the U.S. via same-day delay on Spike TV.
