Barring any more hiccups, UFC 146’s talent shuffle is almost done.
UFC president Dana White announced today via Twitter that heavyweight Roy Nelson, who was left without an opponent when Antonio Silva was promoted to a co-main event bout with Cain Velasquez, is now scheduled to fight onetime title challenger Gabriel Gonzaga.
Gonzaga was originally scheduled to face Shane Del Rosario at UFC 146. Del Rosario now awaits a new foe.
