Hector Sandoval signs with the UFC, replaces Sean Santella against Wilson Reis at UFC 201

Wilson Reis has a new opponent for next Saturday’s UFC 201 as he will now meet UFC newcomer Hector Sandoval in a flyweight bout.

The fight change was announced by the UFC on Monday.

UFC 201 will come from the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia and will be headlined by a title fight as Robbie Lawler defends the UFC welterweight title against Tyron Woodley.

Reis (20-6) has won three of his last four fights and he is coming off a decision win against Dustin Ortiz in January.
