This past weekend the UFC announced the full main card for the San Jose show, identifying six bouts for the FUEL TV broadcasted card.



An injury to lightweight Paul Taylor will likely force a change to the opening FUEL TV match, with Rafel dos Anjos stepping in for the Brit versus Anthony Njokuani. UFC officials have yet to announce the change.
