A new main event announced last week has definitely changed the complexion of UFC on Versus 4. Instead of Anthony Johnson introducing Nate Marquardt to welterweight, it will now be Rick Story. Story, who’s coming off a huge decision win over Thiago Alves at UFC 130, didn’t hesitate when he got the call to face Marquardt and now has the chance to rank up two huge wins in under a month. In addition to the main event change, main carder Martin Kampmann bowed out with an injury as well, and was replaced by Matt Brown. Brown moves up from an undercard matchup with Rich Attonito, who will now face Daniel Roberts.
