Replacing Tom Duquesnoy on short notice to face Nathaniel Wood at UFC 232 will be Andre Ewell, according to a source with direct knowledge of the booking.
Ewell will step in a month before the matchup to fight Wood at UFC 232 on Dec. 29 in Las Vegas. Previously, Wood’s former opponent Duquesnoy was forced to withdraw due to medical issues.
Former CES MMA bantamweight champion Ewell made his victorious Octagon debut in September at UFC Fight Night 137 when he defeated former champion Renan Barao as a significant underdog.
