Tomorrow’s UFC Vegas 12 card has undergone a late change as Charlie Ontiveros replaces Makhmud Muradov against Kevin Holland.
MMA Fighting first reported the news, citing undisclosed reasons for why Muradov was removed from the card.
Holland (19-5-0) enters the contest riding a three-fight winning streak, picking up wins over Anthony Hernandez, Joaquin Buckley and Darren Stewart.
