The UFC’s next trip to Brazil in a month has seen a change to its preliminary card lineup – again. Sam Sicilia (11-3 MMA, 1-2 UFC) has been forced out of a featherweight bout against Felipe Arantes (15-5-1 MMA, 2-1-1 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 28 and will be replaced by promotional newcomer Edimilson Souza (12-3 MMA, 0-0 UFC). The change was reported by Brazilian news outlet Globo , but has not yet been made official by the UFC. UFC Fight Night 28 takes place Sept. 4 at Estadio Jornalista Felipe Drumond in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The six-fight main card airs on FOX Sports 1 as the third UFC event set for the new cable network.
