Dresden’s Chris Clements has his next fight lined up in the UFC.
After Claudio Silva suffered a broken foot, this left a hole to fill in the UFC 186 bout with Nordine Taleb.
Filling the gap in the welterweight bout at the Bell Centre in Montreal on April 25, will be Clements.
“Short notice against a another good Canadian. Game Time!” Clements wrote on social media.
The veteran local fighter is fresh off of a blistering first-round finish of Vik Grujic in November.
Clements now has a 12-5 MMA record in his career and is 2-1 in the UFC.
Taleb has a pro recorf of 10-2-0.
UFC 186 is headlined by a championship doubleheader featuring TJ Dillashaw vs. Renan Barao for the bantamweight crown and Demetrious Johnson vs. Kyoji Horiguchi for the flyweight title.
