Thomas Gifford will remain on the UFC Fight Night 161 card after all.
According to a report from ESPN, the 27-year-old will take on Mike Davis, who is stepping in for Brok Weaver on less than one week’s notice. UFC Fight Night 161 goes down on Oct. 12 from Tampa, Florida and is headlined by a strawweight bout between Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Michelle Waterson.
Gifford fell to Roosevelt Roberts by decision in his Octagon debut at UFC Fight Night 150.
