C.B. Dollaway gets third opponent change to finalize UFC Moscow lineup

The revolving door of opponents for C.B. Dollaway has continued ahead of UFC Fight Night 136. The veteran now has a third different scheduled opponent for the card.

With Artem Frolov injured and unable to compete, Dollaway (17-8 MMA, 11-8 UFC) will now meet promotional newcomer Khalid Murtazaliev (13-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) in a middleweight bout on Saturday’s card, which marks the UFC’s debut in Russia.

Murtazaliev replaces Frolov, who was only briefly scheduled for the fight after Dollaway’s originally scheduled opponent, Omari Akhmedov, was forced to withdraw due to injury as well. Dollaway confirmed the latest change on social media (via Instagram):
