UFC signs KSW champion Matuesz Gamrot to step in versus Magomed Mustafaev at October 17 event

On October 17th the UFC will be back on Fight Island, outside of Abu Dhabi, with an event that includes top featherweights Brian Ortega and Chan Sung Jung clashing in the main event. That card was also supposed to feature former featherweight Renato Moicano (14-3-1) in his second UFC lightweight bout, versus Magomed Mustafaev (14-4).

However, Moicano has been forced to withdraw from that bout because he is unable to leave the US. AG Fight, who initially reported on Moicano’s situation, said the Brazilian—who trains out of ATT in Florida—was stuck on US soil for undisclosed reasons.
