Danny Roberts has been dealt a new opponent for his UFC debut on Dec. 10. And it comes in the form of fellow newcomer, Nathan Coy.
Roberts, the boxer-turned-martial artist more affectionately known by his nickname "White Chocolate," will face Coy at UFC Fight Night 80 at the Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas, the UFC announced on Monday. The British fighter had been slated to face Ultimate Fighter 21 member Michael Graves, who was forced from the card due to an injury.
Coy (14-5) is a teammate of Graves' at American Top Team in Coconut Creek, Florida, and also competed on TUF 21.
