Brian Kelleher has had to keep his head on a swivel leading up to UFC Vegas 9.
After having two opponent changes in the last few weeks, Kelleher sees yet another change just hours before he steps into the Octagon. First reported by MMAFighting, “Boom” will now be welcoming Ray Rodriguez to the UFC in a three-round featherweight bout.
It was reported by MMA Junkie that Rodriguez signed with the UFC as early as yesterday to serve as a “backup” fighter if something were to happen to Kelleher’s then-opponent, Kevin Natividad.
