There’s been a slight change to Friday’s UFC event.
Steve Bosse has withdrawn from his light heavyweight contest with Jared Cannonier for unknown reasons, and Cannonier will now take on late replacement Nick Roehrick at The Ultimate Fighter 25 Finale. The news was first reported by Shawn Bitter on Tuesday, and was also confirmed by MMA Fighting.
Cannonier is coming off a unanimous decision loss to top contender Glover Teixeira at UFC 208 in February. Prior to the loss, Cannonier was enjoying back-to-back wins over Ion Cutelaba and Cyril Asker.
