Stefan Struve steps in to face Chase Gormley at UFC 104
by Jacob Camargo on August 21, 2009

Heavyweight prospect Stefan Struve will fill the void left by Ben Rothwell and take on UFC newcomer, Chase Gormley, on the under card of UFC 104, according to Fighters Only.

The recent heavyweight shuffling has seen Ben Rothwell step up to take on Cain Velasquez as his original opponent, Shane Carwin, was promoted to a title shot against the current UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar at UFC 106.

Struve earned his first UFC win by defeating Denis Stojnic at UFC 99 in June. He lost to  Junior dos Santos in his UFC debut just 4 events prior. The Dutch youngster has finished 13 of his 17 career wins by submission and holds notable wins over Colin Robinson and Mario Neto.

Gormley has yet to compete in 2009 as he's been inactive since defeating Eric Pele at MFC 16 last May. Since his pro debut in April 2007, Gormley has put together an undefeated 6-0 MMA record, with 2 wins by TKO and 2 by submission. He holds a notable win over Elite XC veteran Jon Murphy.

UFC 104 takes place on October 24 from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The event will be headlined by a light-heavyweight title bout between current UFC light-heavyweight champ Lyoto Machida and challenger Mauricio "Shogun" Rua.
