Not fighting April 6
Fremd is not fighting Cesar Almeida on April 6, according to Nolan King of USA Today.
ANALYSIS
Fremd withdrew from his scheduled fight against Almeida. However, the latter will not sit out the UFC's April 6 event, as the promotion has replaced Fremd with Dylan Budka. It is unclear why Fremd is out for the April 6 event and how long he will be unavailable.

Facing Cesar Almeida
Fremd agreed to fight Cesar Almeida in a middleweight bout at UFC's April 6 event, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS

Finished by Roman Kopylov
Fremd lost to Roman Kopylov via TKO (strikes) at 4:44 of Round 2 at Noche UFC on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Fremd, a +260 underdog, was fine for about three minutes. After that, the roof came crashing down. Josh had no chance if this turned into a kickboxing match, and that ended up being exactly the case. He failed on all five of his takedown attempts, leaving an opening for Kopylov, who hits like a truck, to land repeated power shots. One massive punch to the liver late in Round 2 shut Fremd's insides down and ended the bout in an instant. The 29-year-old Pennsylvania native drops to 2-3 in his first five UFC bouts. It's also worth mentioning he missed weight for one of those victories.
