Gunnar Nelson will face a new opponent at UFC London with further replacements expected ahead of next weekend's card.
The Icelandic fighter, who fights out of Stoke-on-Trent, will now fight Japansese welterweight Takashi Sato in one of the headline fights on the preliminary card.
Takashi Sato takes the place of Claudio Silva, who has pulled out with an injury, as Sato accepted the fight on just 11 days notice. Sato hasn’t fought in the Octagon since his submission loss to Miguel Baeza in November 2020.
