Zarrukh Adashev will replace Ryan Benoit and face Tyson Nam at UFC on ESPN 10 this Saturday.

TSN was first to report the new booking. UFC on ESPN 10 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas on Saturday and is headlined by a flyweight clash between Jessica Eye and Cynthia Calvillo. The card will air on ESPN and ESPN+.

After losing his professional debut, the 27-year-old Adashev compiled a three-fought winning streak in Bellator MMA, with two of those triumphs coming inside the distance. Adashev also has competed in Glory Kickboxing.

Nam is still looking for his first UFC triumph after dropping decisions to Sergio Pettis and Kai Kara-France in his first two Octagon appearances.
