Neil Seery has pulled out of his UFC Fight Night 55 bout against Richie Vaculik and taking Seery’s place in the bout will be Louis Smolka. 
The fight change was announced by the UFC on Tuesday.
UFC Fight Night 55 will come from the Allphones Arena in Sydney, Australia on November 8th and will be headlined by a scheduled five round middleweight bout as former Strikeforce champion Luke Rockhold meets Michael Bisping.
Smolka (7-1) made his UFC debut at the beginning of the year and defeated Alptekin Ozkilic by unanimous decision at UFC Fight Night 35. He returned four months later and suffered his first career defeat as he lost a split decision to Chris Cariaso.
Vaculik (10-2) lost his UFC debut at the end of last year to Justin Scoggins and returned in June at UFC Fight Night 43 and defeated Roldan Sangcha-an by unanimous decision. Six of his ten victories have come by submission and his decision win against Sangcha-an marked the second time in his career that he went the distance.
