Welterweight Rick Story has a new opponent for his fight at UFC on FX 4 next month in Atlantic City, as Rich Attonito has been forced out with an injury.
The UFC announced Attonito's removal on Tuesday, and revealed that Story will now take on Papy Abedi on the card, which takes place on June 22.
Story hopes to bounce back from consecutive losses, suffered against Charlie Brenneman and Martin Kampmann in 2011. Abedi as well has lost two straight, dropping his UFC debut to Thiago Alves and then losing to James Head last month at UFC on Fuel 2.
