Shane Del Rosario draws Stipe Miocic at UFC 146

After a ton of flip flopping, the UFC 146 card seems to finally be complete. Shane Del Rosario (11-0) will finally make his UFC debut against Stipe Miocic (8-0).

This fight comes just hours after Del Rosario’s original opponent, Gabriel Gonzaga was pulled from their fight to take on Roy Nelson.

Del Rosario will come into the octagon with a perfect 11-0 record. He picked up the biggest win of his career more than a year ago, by KO’ing Lavar Johnson at Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Silva.

Also undefeated is his opponent Miocic. This will be his third inside the octagon and his second fight of 2012. He most recently defeated Phil De Fries at UFC on FUEL: Sanchez vs. Ellenberger winning Knockout of the Night honors.

Finally the UFC 146 card looks to be complete and there will hopefully be no more changes.
