Davi Ramos replaces Max Griffin, meets Sergio Moraes at UFC Fight Night: Fortaleza

Sergio Moraes has a new opponent for next week’s UFC Fight Night 106 event in Fortaleza, Brazil.

Max Griffin, who was scheduled to face the Brazilian jiu-jitsu specialist on March 11, announced Thursday on his Facebook page that he was advised to pull out of the welterweight bout due to an undisclosed injury, and the promotion has signed Davi Ramos to replace him at the event.

MMA Fighting confirmed the news following a report by Combate.

Moraes (11-2-1), who had his opponent changed in three of his last four UFC fights, is undefeated as a welterweight under the promotion’s banner with five wins and one draw.
