Background
Former TPF Featherweight Champion Isaac De Jesus was scheduled to take on Eddie Yagin in a bout for the vacant title, but it was announced on May 27, 2011 that former Bellator Featherweight Champion Joe Soto was to replace De Jesus because of a failed drugs test and subsequent suspension following TPF 9. The bout will still be for the title.
On July 15, an undisclosed injury forced Andre Galvao out of his fight with Jorge Lopez. On July 22, it was announced that Strikeforce veteran David Marshall will step in as Galvao's replacement.
TPF middleweight champion David Loiseau was originally slated to face Giva Santana, but had to pull out of the fight due to an undisclosed injury requiring surgery. Stepping in to take his place is former WEC champion Doug Marshall. He will face Santana in a middleweight non-title bout.
