Related Topics: Kyle Snyder, Alexander Romanov

Big name wrestler Kyle Snyder will no longer be competing at RAF 2, but Alexander Romanov will be replacing him. The former-ranked UFC heavyweight contender will be taking part in the sophomore event from Real American Freestyle, as announced by the promotion. Snyder sustained an injury that pulled him out of his highly anticipated contest with NCAA champion Mason Parris in what was to be a battle of fellow Olympians.

The injury that Snyder sustained transpired during his recent victory at the World Championships, which forced his withdrawal from RAF’s sequel offering. Current PFL competitor Alexander Romanov will test his mettle against Parris and fill the spot that Snyder has left vacant.
