UFC officials have yet to make a statement, however Combate reported it Sunday morning.

Koscheck (17-9) steps in on just two-weeks notice. He is coming off a submission loss to Jake Ellenberger eight days ago at UFC 184. He is riding a four-fight losing skid, dating back to 2012.

Silva (17-5, 1NC) has had a roller coaster of a UFC career, flopping between wins and losses. Most recently he earned a submission victory over Mike Rhodes at UFC Fight Night 58 in December.

UFC Fight Night 62 takes place at Maracanainho gymnasim and features Demian Maia vs. Ryan LaFlare in the main event.
