Welcome to the UFC, Alex Morono

Looks like Kelvin Gastelum's desire to make a quick turnaround after his loss to Neil Magny isn't going to work out, as he's been pulled from UFC 195 with an injury and replaced by newcomer Alex Morono.

Maybe my knowledge of biology is a little shakey, but it really does seem like welterweights grow on trees. Anytime one gets injured, there's always somebody waiting in the wings, champing at the bit for their chance to step into the Octagon and make a run in the UFC. And despite the fact the the UFC has nearly a hundred welterweights on the roster, they always seem to need another one.
