Alexander Gustafsson will not be competing against Ovince St. Preux at UFC 282 on December 10th, 2022.
MMA Junkie originally reported that OSP claimed on his social media that Gus has pulled out of their upcoming fight. Filling in for Gustafsson will be a former PFL champion in Philipe Lins.
No official reason has surfaced as to why Gus has dropped out, and the UFC’s official website still has Alexander listed as St. Preux’s opponent for UF 282. This seems like one of those situations where it appears as though the UFC is the last to know about these changes, which should be impossible.
