Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) today (May 6, 2011) made some minor adjustments to the UFC on Versus 4 fight card for its trip to the Consol Energy Center on June 26 in Pittsburgh, PA.
T.J. Grant (16-5) will try to get back into the win column against Charlie Brenneman after a unanimous decision loss to Ricardo Almeida at UFC 124 last December. His bite from the "Big Dog" put the Canadian at an even 3-3 as a Zuffa employee.
Brenneman replaces Matt Riddle, who was removed from the upcoming event for undisclosed reasons. MMA Die Hards first brought word of the change earlier today.
"The Spaniard" (13-2) is fresh of a unanimous decision win over Amicar Alves, pushing his Octagon record to 2-1 after rebounding from a beating he took at the hands of Johny Hendricks at UFC 117 back in August 2010.
Brenneman is a longtime student at AMA Fight Club alongside Dan and Jim Miller.
UFC on Versus 4 will feature a bevy of marquee match ups, including a welterweight brouhaha between muscle-bound martial artists Nate Marquardt and Anthony Johnson.
In addition, Joe Stevenson will make his featherweight debut against Javier Vazquez, while Manny Gamburyan welcomes Tyson Griffin to the 145-pound division.
