Demian Maia Rafael Assuncao’s ankle wasn’t cooperating with the UFC’s plans to have him headline UFC Fight Night 62 against Uriah Faber, and now the main event spot falls to the welterweight bout between Demian Maia (19-6 MMA, 13-6 UFC) and Ryan LaFlare (11-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC). The UFC announced the card changes earlier today. UFC Fight Night 62 takes place March 21 at Maracanazinho Gymnasium in Rio de Janeiro. The bulk of the card airs on FOX Sports 1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass.
