Other

- A heavyweight bout between the 2001 K-1 World Grand Prix winner and former interim title contender Mark Hunt against Marcin Tybura was expected to serve as the event's headliner. However on October 10, Hunt was removed from the bout due to "medical concerns". He had recently admitted in an article trouble sleeping and said he's begin to stutter and slur his words. The UFC released a statement claiming that "the health-related statements made by Hunt represented the first time UFC was made aware of these claims". They also announced that it would be required that Hunt undergo further testing and evaluations prior to competing in any future bout. As a result, former UFC Heavyweight Champion Fabricio Werdum stepped in as a replacement on October 10.
- The Ultimate Fighter: Redemption welterweight winner Jesse Taylor was expected to face Belal Muhammad at the event. However on September 13, it was announced that Taylor was pulled from the card after being notified by USADA of a potential doping violation. He was flagged after an out-of-competition drug test conducted August 22. He was replaced by Tim Means on October 11.
- Jeremy Kennedy was expected to face Alex Volkanovski at the event. However, Kennedy pulled out of the fight on October 5 citing a back injury. He was replaced by Humberto Bandenay. In turn, Bandenay pulled out of the fight on November 6 and was replaced by promotional newcomer Shane Young on November 13.
- Bec Rawlings was originally scheduled to compete against Joanne Calderwood at the event. However on November 7, it was announced that Calderwood withdrew from the event due to "undisclosed reasons". She was replaced by promotional newcomer Jessy Rose-Clark on November 8.

Didn't seem so tough here Coby

New generation culture. Talk incessant shit, act all hard. Get any resistance coming back at you though and it's immediate video + legal threats time. Not quite as dirty as Angela Magana but within the vicinity. Kinda thought Colby was just totally playing a character to get more viewers on his fights but it turns out he is just a gigantic cunt

I might go to a party tonight, so I'll hopefully be watching the fights when I get to my friend's house. I'll watch the Fight Pass fights on my phone.

gL everyone~

Damien Brown vs. Frank Camacho = FOTN as expected.

That finishing knee from Tai Tuivasa was NASTY~

Uneventful. Don't bother watching if you haven't already. Unless, of course, you need help falling asleep.
