The shuffling of UFC 98's fight card continued today, as Team Quest fighter and "The Ultimate Fighter 8" cast member Krzysztof Soszynski (17-8-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) was named as a replacement for the injured Houston Alexander (8-4 MMA, 2-3 UFC).

Soszynski will meet Andre Gusmao (5-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) on the preliminary card of the May 23 event in Las Vegas.

The UFC today announced the change, one day after confirming Alexander's withdrawal from the event after suffering a broken hand.

Soszynski will return to action on just one month's rest. "The Polish Experiment" earned a submission win over Brian Stann on the main card of UFC 97 on April 18. The win was Soszynski's fifth straight victory, and it earned him a $70,000 bonus for the evening's "Submission of the Night."

Gusmao will be looking for his first win in the octagon. The Brazilian lost a unanimous decision to Jon Jones in August 2008. The four-time IFL veteran had been undefeated before making his UFC debut.

Alexander was the latest victim of the injury bug that has plagued UFC 98. Frank Mir, Josh Koscheck, Yushin Okami and James Irvin had all previously withdrawn from the card for various ailments.

No timetable has been given for Alexander's return to action.

The oft-updated official fight card for the event now includes:

MAIN CARD

•Champ Rashad Evans vs. Lyoto Machida (for light-heavyweight title)
•Matt Hughes vs. Matt Serra
•Xavier Foupa-Pokam vs. Drew McFedries
•Dan Miller vs. Chael Sonnen
•Frank Edgar vs. Sean Sherk
PRELIMINARY CARD

•Brock Larson vs. Chris Wilson
•Pat Barry vs. Tim Hague
•Kyle Bradley vs. Phillipe Nover
•Andre Gusmao vs. Krzysztof Soszynski
•Brandon Wolff vs. Yoshiyuki Yoshida
•David Kaplan vs. George Roop
The curse of this card runs on...

I'm just waiting for one of the main event fighters to drop out now.

My money would be on Lyoto, I just have a feeling for some reason.

I wouldn't mind seeing Serra or Hughes drop out... Not sure why, as that could make for a fun fight...

Re: Krzysztof Soszynski replaces injured Houston Alexander at UFC 98
Actually I didn't think of it that way, if Serra dropped out, I'm sure fighters would be lining up around the block to replace him.
