Quinn Mulhern injured, Ryan Couture now gets Al Iaquinta at UFC 164 in Milwaukee

By: Jamie Penick, MMATorch Editor-in-Chief

Ryan Couture has a new opponent for UFC 164 in Milwaukee, as his originally scheduled foe, Quinn Mulhern, pulled out of the event with a broken hand on Tuesday. According to a report from The Las Vegas Sun, Couture will now take on Ultimate Fighter Live finalist Al Iaquinta on the card instead.

Couture enters the event off a loss to Ross Pearson in his UFC debut in April. That defeat snapped a four-fight winning streak for the 30-year-old son of UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture.

Iaquinta steps up on short notice in his first appearance since last year's TUF Live Finale. He was submitted by Michael Chiesa in that bout, and injuries have kept him out of action since then. He brings a 5-2-1 overall record into this second UFC appearance.

UFC 164 takes place on August 31 from the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wis., headlined by the UFC Lightweight Championship bout between Benson Henderson and Anthony Pettis.
