More injuries are shaking up the UFC's December schedule, as Mike Easton now has his third scheduled opponent for UFC on Fox 5. After T.J. Dillashaw went down due to injury, Bryan Caraway stepped up for the fight, but now Caraway has suffered an injury as well.
According to a report from MMAJunkie.com, Caraway was taken out of the fight this week, and in his place steps Raphael Assuncao.
Assuncao has won two straight in the bantamweight division since dropping down from featherweight, defeating Issei Tamura and Johnny Eduardo in his last two. Easton's won eight fights in a row into this event, including three inside the Octagon.
