Words travel extremely fast on Twitter for quick updates in the world of MMA, and it sounds like the days are looking good for UFC middleweight Chris Camozzi. It appears he has agreed to replace Costa Philippou for UFC on FX 8. Just this morning, MMA Fighting reported that Philippou was forced to withdraw from his upcoming fight with Ronald “Jacare” Souza due to a cut above the eye.
On such short notice Camozzi has stepped up, and dropped a tweet via his official twitter account:
RT @ChrisCamozzi: Crazy but good day and some doors just opened agreed. Not many would walk through it. #gamer
