Michel Pereira Vs. Andre Fialho Moved To UFC 270

Michel Pereira and Andre Fialho won’t be competing this weekend.

The bout was reportedly moved from UFC Vegas 46 to UFC 270 because one of Pereira’s trainers tested positive for Covid-19.

Pereira was scheduled to face Muslim Salikhov, but Salikhov was forced to withdraw due to an unknown injury.

Fialho was called up to the UFC to replace Salikhov versus Pereira for the first time. The main event of UFC Vegas 46 will feature Giga Chikadze vs. Calvin Kattar.

Pereira (26-11, 2 no contests) has recent wins over Niko Price, Khaos Williams ad Zelim Imadaev.

Fialho (14-3, 1 no contest), meanwhile, is on a four-fight knockout streak, all of which took place in 2021, the most notable of which being his victory against former UFC star James Vick.
