WEC newcomer Nissen Osterneck (5-0) will face former NCAA wrestling champion Jake Rosholt (4-0) at WEC 36 on 5 November in Hollywood, FL, Osterneck confirmed to Fighters.com Monday.

Osterneck replaces American Top Team’s “Indio” Danillo Villefort (8-2).  The reason for his removal from the card is unknown at this time.

Rosholt’s manager Ted Ehrhardt revealed to Five Ounces of Pain Monday that this bout will be Rosholt’s only WEC fight; UFC matchmaker Joe Silva reportedly informed them that Rosholt will be moved to the UFC’s middleweight ranks after the November event.
