Talita Oliveira Replaces Injured Germaine de Randamie, Faces Marion Reneau at UFC Fight Night 115

Against the odds, Marion Reneau is going to get to fight in the Netherlands after all.

“The Belizean Bruiser” will now face once-defeated Brazilian Talita de Oliveira Bernardo in a bantamweight bout at UFC Fight Night 115. Reneau was originally scheduled to face inaugural UFC women's featherweight champion Germaine de Randamie in her return to the 135-pound division, but a lingering hand injury forced the Dutch striker out of the contest late last weeek.

UFC officials confirmed the pairing on Monday, following an initial report from MMABrasil.com.
