Background
A training injury forced Jason MacDonald out of his fight with Rafael Natal on October 20, 2010. He was replaced by UFC newcomer Jesse Bongfeldt.[2]
On October 26, 2010, Anthony Waldburger had to pull out of his fight with Matt Riddle due to an injury.[3] Sean Pierson will be replacing him.[4]
UFC 124 will feature live preliminary bouts streamed on UFC.com rather than Spike TV due to the 2010 Spike Video Game Awards being aired in the same time slot.[5][6]
