The UFC on Wednesday announced a trio of changes to the UFC on FX 4 card, coming on June 22 to Atlantic City, New Jersey. Two of the announced changes were confirmations of previous reports, but once more Rick Story also has a new opponent for the card.

Previously reported injuries to both Jimy Hettes and Matt Riddle brought in newcomer Joey Gambino and Matt Riddle in replacement roles. Gambino will take on Steven Siler, while Brown steps in to face Luis Ramos.

The new change is an injury to Papy Abedi, who himself stepped up as an injury replacement for Rich Attonito just three weeks ago. Now, Rick Story has his third opponent for this card, and it will be UFC newcomer Brock Jardine. Jardine is 9-1 as a professional, with his only loss coming to UFC vet and Ultimate Fighter winner Tony Ferguson.

UFC on FX 2 is headlined by the lightweight clash between Gray Maynard and Clay Guida.
