An undisclosed injury will postpone the UFC debut of Derrick Lewis (9-2) who had expected to face Nandor Guelmino (11-4-1) at UFC on Fox Sports 1 2.
Guelmino who will be looking to bounce back from his lone Strikeforce appearance, in which he was submitted by Josh Bartnett; will now make his UFC debut at UFC 165 on September 21. It is rumored that Guelmino will face Daniel Omielanczuk (15-3), who is on an 11 fight winning streak.

Able Turjillo who is a member of the Blackzilians debuted in the UFC defeating Marcus Levesseur by TKO. Turjill at UFC 160 would see his 5 fight winning streak ended by the expert grappling skills of Khabib Nurmagomedov.
