Abel Trujillo has been unable to acquire a visa and he has been pulled from UFC Fight Night 85, replacing him against Ross Pearson will be Chad Laprise. Pearson has rotated wins and losses in his last seven UFC appearances, with his last bout being a loss to Francisco Trinaldo at UFC Fight Night: Dillashaw vs. Cruz. Laprise was originally set to face Alan Patrick at the very same event, but he has also won three of four under the UFC banner. Patrick is still slated to be competing on the card, but UFC officials have yet to sign a new opponent for him to face. UFC Fight Night 85 takes place on March 19th from the Brisbane Entertainment Centre in Brisbane, Australia with Mark Hunt and Frank Mir headlining.
