Al Iaquinta won’t be facing Paul Felder on Dec. 2 after all.

Iaquinta vs. Felder was booked for UFC 218. The event takes place inside the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan. Sources said that Iaquinta suffered an injury and won’t be able to compete.

The report also notes that Charles Oliveira is in the running to replace “Raging.” The UFC has not made an official announcement at this time.
