The UFC organization confirmed the Frenchman Cheick kongo as the replacement for Heath herring at UFC-99, which takes place on June 13th, in Cologne, Germany.
Herring was removed from the card due to a health problem that the athlete has not yet revealed, so Kongo, who is coming off a victory over Antoni Hardonk, will face the undefeated Cain Velazquez in the penultimate fight of the show.
