Josh Neer Replaces Sean Sherk in Fight Against Gleison Tibau at UFC 104

Josh Neer has been set to replace Sean Sherk in his lightweight fight against Gleison Tibau at UFC 104 in October, as has been reported by Sherdog.

Sherk suffered a shoulder injury that forced him to pull out of the fight.

Neer recently competed at UFC 101 in August, where he suffered a unanimous loss to Kurt Pellgrino.

Tibau last fought at The Ultimate Fighter 9 Finale in June, losing to Melvin Guillard by split decision.

UFC 104 takes place at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The event is headlined by a light heavyweight title match between champion Lyoto Machida and Mauricio “Shogun” Rua.
