There's been a slight adjustment to the UFC Edmonton fight card.
Javad Mahjoub will now face Joel Faglier at Rogers Place, the UFC announced Wednesday.
Mahjoub, who fights out of Montreal, was originally slated for a bout with British fighter Louie Sutherland.
The 35-year-old Mahjoub is 5-0 in his MMA career, with three knockouts, three wins by submission and three by decision.
Prior to joining the UFC, Mahjoub was a decorated judo fighter. He competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics as a member of the IOC Refugee Olympic Team.
Faglier, 25, is 6-0 with two knockouts and three wins by submission.
The American last fought on Feb. 19, beating Cody East by unanimous decision.
