Phil Davis vs. Wagner Prado official for August's UFC on FOX 4 event

A light heavyweight matchup between top prospect Phil Davis (9-1 MMA, 5-1 UFC) and promotional newcomer Wagner Prado (7-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) is now official for UFC on FOX 4.

Davis was originally expected to face Chad Griggs on the card, but "The Grave Digger" was forced to withdraw due to injury.

MMAjunkie.com (UFC blog for UFC news, UFC rumors, fighter interviews and event previews/recaps | MMAjunkie.com) in May reported the switch, and UFC officials recently confirmed the new matchup.

Why not have him fight Bader or someone we have heard of?

I think they want to build him back up with some lesser names. Let him get some new highlights, then face the top contenders again.

What was Griggs' injury? I was curious to see how the cut would go.

Prado is a crazy risky fight for Davis to take. Almost completely unknown in North America, but a helluva lot of potential and extremely dangerous.

I would not be surprised if Davis loses this fight. Big step up from Griggs IMO.

bader is fighting machida but like kevo said he needs to be rehyped cause in my opinion he lost most of that hype to me after the lil nog fight looked terrible then went on to still look bad against rashad.

Prado seems very good on the feet, but Davis is just such a good wrestler...but Prado seems pretty strong and if he can land a big shot early it could send Davis into desperation mode where he's shooting shots from the outside, without setting them up.
