A day after the UFC announced that Stipe Miocic will not fight Ben Rotwell at UFC FN 76 due to injury, the promotion has announced the latter won’t compete on October 24th either.

Initially, the UFC said it hoped to find a replacement opponent for Rothwell. But, on Wednesday, it was announced that no opponent could be found for the heavyweight contender. As a result, the lightweight fight between Norman Parke and Reza Madadi will co-headline the event.

The Dublin card will feature Ireland’s Joe Duffy taking on American lightweight Dustin Poirier in the main event.
