Die UFC musste fuer diesen Event Dennis Siver einen neuen Gegner geben weil die Schwedische MMA Federation meinte das Taylor Lapilus kein geeigneter Gegner sei. Der SNMAF President Johan Halldin meinte:
“Mr. Taylor Lapilus After having reviewed the information submitted as well as having viewed footage of Mr. Lapilus, the Board of SMMAF must regrettably declare that the request regarding Mr Lapilus as a contender to Mr. Siver has been denied. The grounds for the denial is the inexperience of the athlete in question as based on his age, his technical skill, his record and his overall short background in MMA. This gives reason to believe that he has limited, if any, sparring and competition experience outside of the official record. It is therefore our judgement that a full-contact, professional MMA match between Mr. Lapilus and Mr. Siver would be an uneven match-up to the point where we Mr. Lapilus’ safety can not be guaranteed.”
Mit anderen Worten, es waere ein Mismatch gewesen. Ich kann mich erinnern das vor 10 Jahren mal ein Fight zwischen Tim Sylvia und Wes Sims gecancelt wurde deswegen.
Dennis Siver wird nun auf Charles Rosa treffen (9-0-0). Rosa hat genauso viele MMA Fights wie Taylor Lapilus (8-1-0), und Rosa gab sein MMA Debut 5 Monate nach Lapilus, allerdings ist Lapilus 22 Jahre und Rosa 28 Jahre.
