Illness Knocks Ian Entwistle Out Of UFC 204, Bout Promoted To FS1 Spot

Illness has knocked Ian Entwistle from UFC 204 and a bout with Rob Font, the promotion confirmed.

A planned UFC Fight Pass prelim between Marc Diakiese and Lukasz Sajewski has taken the place of Entwistle-Font on FOX Sports 1. The card takes place Saturday from Manchester, England and features Michael Bisping vs. Dan Henderson for the middleweight title.

Entwistle did not weigh-in early Friday, as the nine-win fighter fell ill. Font (12-2) did successfully tip the scales and will likely receive his fight purse.
