Yves Edwards is still booked to fight Piotr Hallmann next, however the lightweight bout has been moved from UFC 173 to UFC Fight Night 43.

The promotion announced the change via Twitter.

Edwards (42-20-1) will be looking to end a three fight, winless streak, after knocking out Jeremy Stephens in December, 2012.

Hallmann (14-2) is coming off a unanimous decision loss to Al Iaquinta in October, after tapping out Francisco Trinaldo in his UFC debut.

The June 7th, UFC FN 43 will be hosted by the Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The card will feature former lightweight champ Benson Henderson taking on Rustam Khabilov in the main event.
