Background
A heavyweight bout between former UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior dos Santos and former Bellator Heavyweight Champion Alexander Volkov was scheduled to serve as the event headliner.[4] However, dos Santos pulled out of the matchup on October 22, citing a bacterial infection in his leg.[5] Greg Hardy was announced as the replacement on the same day, moving this bout down into the co-main event slot.[6]
A featherweight bout between Zabit Magomedsharipov and Calvin Kattar was scheduled for UFC on ESPN: Reyes vs. Weidman. However, promotion officials then elected to instead reschedule the pairing for this event.[7] In turn, after a change up in participants in the original main event, the pairing was elevated to serve as the three round headliner.[6]
Vinc Pichel was linked to a bout with Alexander Yakovlev at the event. However, Pichel pulled out of the fight on October 24, citing an undisclosed injury and was replaced by Roosevelt Roberts.[8]
A light heavyweight bout between Gadzhimurad Antigulov and Ed Herman was scheduled for the event. However, Antigulov was pulled from the bout for an undisclosed reason and replaced by Khadis Ibragimov.[9]
