December 8, 2015 | Posted by Joseph Lee

MMA Junkie reports that Kelvin Tiller (7-1) will replace Shamil Gamzatov (9-0) against Andreas Spang (9-3) at WSOF 26. Gamzatov is out of the fight due to visa issues.

Meanwhile, a light heavyweight fight between Jake Heun (8-4) and Clinton Williams (7-2) has been added to the five-fight main card. Heun was originally set to fight Tyrone Spong (2-0) in the co-main event, but Spong suffered an injury. This sent Heun to the preliminary card but now he has been promoted. The event happens on December 18 at The Chelsea at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas. Here’s the card so far:
