UFC 333: Allen Withdraws, Keita Replaces Him Against Pico
Arnold Allen has been removed from his scheduled featherweight bout against Aaron Pico at UFC 333 on October 24 in Abu Dhabi due to ongoing rehabilitation from past treatments. Losene Keita has been confirmed as his replacement, stepping in on short notice for the main card. Allen, ranked No. 6, was attempting his first three-fight year in the UFC since 2014. Pico, ranked No. 13, will face Keita, who is coming off a first-round knockout victory at UFC Paris. The event is headlined by Alexander Volkanovski’s title defense against Movsar Evloev.
