UFC Fight Night 266 has seen a change with less than three
weeks to go before the event.
Eric
Nolan was originally scheduled to face Jose
Henrique Souza at UFC Fight Night 266 on Feb. 7. However, Nolan
has pulled out and will now be replaced by Nikolay
Veretennikov. Both fighters confirmed the bout via social
media following an intial report from RealKevinK.
Veretennikov (13-7) has gone 1-3 in the
UFC since his debut in 2024. The Kazakh will be making his UFC
middleweight debut on short notice against Souza.
Meanwhile, Souza (8-1) suffered his lone professional loss in a
failed bid for a UFC contract on
Dana White’s Contender Series in 2022. “Canela” has since
racked up a three-fight winning streak on the regional circuit to
earn his UFC contract.
