A bantamweight bout between Brett Johns and Mitch Gagnon will not take place at UFC Glasgow, as Gagnon suffered an injury, and has now been replaced by Albert Morales.

Champions.co first revealed the news.

Johns (13-0-0) is eager to get back into the cage after his bout with Ian Entwistle, which was scheduled for UFC London, was scrapped after weigh ins due to Entwistle’s health problems. In his first, and only UFC bout, “The Pikey” defeated the previously undefeated Kwan Ho Kwak by decision at UFC Belfast.

Morales (7-1-1) made his promotional debut at UFC Hidalgo, and drew with Alejandro Perez. Following that, he faced Thomas Almeida at UFC Fight Night 100, but was stopped in the second round. He returned from the loss with a split decision win over Andre Soukhamthath.

UFC Fight Night 113 takes place live from the SSE Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland on Saturday, July 16, 2017.
