UFC welterweight contender Martin Kampmann (16-3 MMA, 7-2 UFC) has
withdrawn from a UFC 111 bout with Ben Saunders (8-1-2 MMA, 4-1 UFC),
and Jake Ellenberger (22-5 MMA, 1-1 UFC) has agreed to take the fight
with a little less than seven-weeks’ notice.
MMAjunkie.com learned of the change from sources
close to the bout, though the UFC has yet to make an official
announcement.
The Kampmann vs. Saunders bout was slated for the main card of UFC 111,
which takes place March 27 in Newark, N.J. It’s currently unknown if
the organization will adjust the bout order following the change.
