Mike Brown was expected to face Vagner Rocha, but was forced out of the bout with an injury. Rocha will instead face Jonathan Brookins at UFC on Fuel TV 1.
Ken Stone was expected to fight Mike Easton at this event, but was forced from the bout due to injury and replaced by promotional newcomer Jared Papazian.
UFC newcomer Ryan Jimmo was expected to face Karlos Vemola at this event, but the bout was cancelled after Jimmo fell injured a week prior to the event.

Does that mean that all/ most UFC events will now be shown on FX over here then? That's good as I get that channel
 

No only the ones that are free in the US i.e. the ultimate fighter and these new FX events. The main events will still be PPV in the US and on ESPN over here for as long as that lasts. The way UFC have been battling with ESPN of late though I'm doubtful the deal will be renewed.

Agree not looking good for ESPN
