The UFC announced on Tuesday that Meek was forced out of UFC’s upcoming show in Stockholm on May 28, and Nordine Taleb will now face Octagon newcomer Oliver Enkamp.
Headlined by Alexander Gustafsson vs. Glover Teixeira, UFC Fight Night 109 takes place at the Ericsson Globe Arena.
Taleb (12-4) is looking to rebound from a decision loss to Santiago Ponzinibbio in February. Prior to the defeat, the Canadian welterweight scored a brutal knockout victory over Erick Silva at UFC 196.
Fighting out of Stockholm, Sweden’s own Enkamp (7-0) gets his first chance in the UFC after racking up a perfect MMA record with five stoppage wins in the Swedish circuit.
