Next fight scheduled
Fremd is set to face Abdul Razak Alhassan in a middleweight fight at UFC event on October 12, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Fremd is coming off a loss against Andre Petroski after a unanimous decison. Josh is facing Abdul Razak Alhassan, whose last UFC fight was back in 2017. Fremd's last two bouts have finished in losses and will expectedly work on his defense against takedowns, which appeared to be his biggest weakness during the last contest, and help secure a victory.

Can't defend takedown in loss
Fremd lost to Andre Petroski via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Denver.
ANALYSIS
Fremd likely would have had a great chance of winning this fight if he was able to remain upright, but that proved to be too difficult a task. He allowed Petroski to land 3-of-4 takedowns, good for 12:50 worth of control time. It's nearly impossible to win a 15-minute decision when you spend that much time being dominated on the mat. Fremd had a brief flurry on the feet at the start of Round 3, but that was it. Josh has now lost back-to-back bouts following a brief two-fight losing streak. He's just 2-4 in a half-dozen UFC appearances.

Will fight at UFC Denver
Fremd is slated to fight Andre Petroski in a middleweight fight at UFC Denver on Jul. 13, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Fremd will get a shot back in the octagon after withdrawing from a scheduled fight against Cesar Almeida back in April. The American middleweight currently holds a 2-3 UFC record heading into his match with Petroski, who is also looking for redemption coming off two straight losses.

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.
