Joey Beltran is returning to the UFC, and this time he’ll fight as a light heavyweight.
UFC officials on Monday announced that Beltran has been tapped as a
replacement for Brandon Vera and will now face James
Te Huna at UFC on FUEL TV 4.
Vera was recently pulled from the matchup in favor of a UFC on FOX 4
matchup with Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, allowing Beltran to step in and fill
the gap.
