Lightweight Jared Gordon will no longer face veteran Jim Miller on Saturday’s UFC on ESPN 46 in Las Vegas.

Miller, who will compete in his 42nd (!) UFC bout, remains on the card to face promotional newcomer Jesse Butler. Eurosport NL‘s Marcel Dorff was first to report the news of the matchup.

If the popular veteran wins on Saturday he will be the first UFC fighter to reach 25 wins inside the octagon.

As for Butler, he has an opportunity of a lifetime to make noise in his promotional debut when he faces such a highly regarded veteran as Miller.
