After a high-profile split with the organization, “The Ultimate Fighter
8” champion Efrain Escudero is returning to the UFC.
Multiple sources close to the event today told MMAjunkie.com that T.J. Grant has suffered an
undisclosed injury and has been forced out of this month’s UFC 141
event. UFC officials later confirmed the change.
Now, Escudero takes Grant’s place and fights fast-rising lightweight Jacob Volkmann.
