Joe Pyfer vs. Kelvin Gastelum has received a new date.
The middleweight clash was originally scheduled to go down in Mexico City on March 29. Unfortunately, the fight was a last-minute scratch after Pyfer became ill. Little more than a week later, we now know that their fight has been rescheduled for UFC 316 on June 7 when the promotion heads back to the Prudential Center in Newark.
Pyfer’s head coach, John Marquez, broke the news during an appearance on MMA Today.
