Petz Replaces Paulino, Will Face Roberts At UFC 116

Petz Replaces Paulino, Will Face Roberts At UFC 116

As does happen on occasion in mixed martial arts, an untimely injury will knock out a fighter from competing at an event. It happened yet again when Julio Paulino suffered an injury and was replaced on the UFC 116 fight card by Forrest Petz; the injury suffered by Paulino is unknown as of this posting. This particualr bout will be a part of the preliminary card.

Petz returns to the UFC for the first time in three years as he went 2-3 from 2006-7, with wins over Luigi Fioravanti and Brian Gassaway; however, he has rebounded with four consecutive victories, with his most recent being over Ralph Johnson at a Moosin MMA event on May 21.

Meanwhile, Roberts signed with the UFC while going 9-0 while fighting in smaller events throughout the state of Oklahoma. He replaced Anthony Johnson at UFC on Versus 1 in March; however, he suffered a KO loss to John Howard at the event.
