The lineup for the UFC’s return to Cincinnati next month is once again complete. Yan Cabral (11-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) now will meet Zak Cummings (16-3 MMA, 1-0 UFC) in a welterweight bout on the prelims at UFC Fight Night 40. Cummings steps in for the fight after Alexander Yakovlev (21-4-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) was moved from his bout with Cabral to UFC Fight Night 42 in Brazil against Demian Maia. UFC Fight Night 40 takes place May 10 at U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati. It’s the UFC’s first event in the city since UFC 77 in 2007, when local fighter Rich Franklin failed to reclaim the middleweight title from then-champ Anderson Silva
