After making a successful UFC debut at UFC on FX 1 last month, Daniel Pineda will now step up on short notice as an injury replacement at UFC on FX 2. The UFC announced on Monday evening that Pineda will replace the injured Robert Peralta against Mackens Semerzier, and the two will meet in Australia on March 3 (airing live in the U.S. on March 2 with the time difference).
Pineda submitted Pat Schilling in January in his UFC debut, winning his sixth straight fight overall. Semerzier was stopped by Peralta in his last bout, but the finish came due to an accidental headbutt and the fight was overturned to a "no contest."
