UFC Tonight has reported that Reza “Mad Dog” Madadi will not be fighting Michael Chiesa at the UFC on Fox 8 card scheduled for July 27. The reason is a lack of Visa says the report. In place of the Swede will be Jorge Masvidal. The bout will go on at the Key Arena in Seattle, the same location of Alexander Gustafsson’s last bout in December against Mauricio Rua.
Madadi has put together a two win and one loss record since his debut in the Sweden last April. He recently upset Michael Johnson, winning submission of the night at Globen in Stockholm this April.
