Ricardo Lamas will not remain on next month’s UFC 162 card, and instead a preliminary-card fight between Tim Boetsch and Mark Munoz will be promoted to the main card. That fight had been set as the featured prelim on FX. The announcement was part of Tuesday night’s edition of “UFC Tonight” on FUEL TV, with correspondnet Ariel Helwani getting word from UFC officials. UFC 162 takes place July 6 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The show is headlined by a middleweight title fight between champion Anderson Silva and top contender Chris Weidman . The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and Facebook. This past Saturday at UFC 161 in Winnipeg, UFC President Dana White told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that Lamas (13-2 MMA, 4-0 UFC) will be paid his show money for next month’s UFC 162 event in Las Vegas – even though he’s not likely to remain on the card
