Johnson, the runner-up to Wilks on season nine of The Ultimate Fighter, bounced back from a loss to Matt Riddle last August when he defeated Mike Guymon at UFC Fight for the Troops 2. Johnson locked on a body triangle after taking Guymon's back, and the pressure to the lower back injured Guymon and forced him to verbally submit. He's now won three of his last four fights since his loss to Wilks in the TUF 9 finale.
Sadollah, the season seven winner of The Ultimate Fighter, has fought his entire career inside the Octagon. After defeating C.B. Dollaway in the TUF 7 finale, Sadollah was beaten by Johny Hendricks. However, he's won three of his last four fights as well, most recently defeating Peter Sobotta last November.
UFC Fight Night 24 airs live on Spike TV from the KeyArena in Seattle, Wash., headlined by a bout between Phil Davis and Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.

Penick's Analysis: This is a good replacement fight on two week's notice. Johnson may have been beaten by Wilks at the finale, but he's a very scrappy and talented fighter with an underrated ground game. He'll be a formidable challenge for Sadollah, and the TUF alumnus that wins this win will have a nice statement win. This will be a good one for Spike TV.
