The featured matchup for Week 2 of Dana White’s Contender Series
has been altered just a few days prior to the card.
Darian
Weeks has pulled out of his scheduled clash with Josh
Quinlan after someone in his camp tested positive for COVID-19.
As a result, Logan Urban
will now face Quinlan in a welterweight matchup on Tuesday.
MMA DNA was first to report the new booking. The Contender
Series takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and airs on ESPN+
at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
A native of Cleveland, Ohio, Urban has been victorious in five of
his first six professional fights. In his most recent outing, the
27-year-old known as “Hulk” scored a second-round KO of Antoine
Blassingame at Ohio Combat League 14 on July 24.
A three-time Legacy Fighting Alliance competitor, Quinlan will take
a 5-0 mark into his matchup with Urban. “The Renegade” has finished
all of his triumphs inside the distance, including a third-round
submission of Dallas
Jennings in his most recent outing at LFA 103.
