Bobby Green Out; Donald Cerrone Steps In Against Jim Miller At UFC 276
UFC lightweight contender Bobby Green has been forced out of his upcoming bout with Jim Miller at UFC 276 on July 2 in Las Vegas, Nevada due to undisclosed reasons.
He will be replaced by former UFC lightweight title challenger, Donald Cerrone, according to a report initially from ESPN’s Brett Okamoto. The fight between Cerrone and Miller is expected to be contested at 170 pounds and will be a rematch of their first meeting back at UFC Fight Night 45 in July 2014 which Cerrone won via a second-round KO. The 39-year-old veteran is 0-5-1 in his last six Octagon outings and is coming off of a first-round TKO loss over Alex Morono back at UFC Vegas 26. Miller meanwhile is 3-2 in his last five fights and will try to build on a second-round TKO victory over Nikolas Motta at UFC Vegas 48.
