As expected Phil Davis officially has replaced injured Tito Ortiz and now meets Antonio Rogerio Nogueira in the headliner of next month’s UFC Fight Night 24 event.
UFC president Dana White tweeted the changed over the weekend, and executives since have made it official on its website.
As MMAjunkie.com reported, Ortiz suffered an accidental training-session headbutt and received 22 stitches. An MRI and CT scan indicated no serious damage, but the wound forced Ortiz to withdraw from the bout.
