The injury bug bit on the UFC in the butt today as Rory MacDonald is because of a neck injury. In the spot steps of MacDonald Johny Hendricks, and he’ll fight with Condit from the co-main event of this evening. The news was originally reported by MMAjunkie.com’s John Morgan. Together with the switcheroo — that is extremely disappointing to all viewing like Condit vs. MacDonald was an early favorite to win”Fight of the Night” — Jake Ellenberger, who was set to combat Hendricks, is left without an opponent, though it’s rumored Tyron Woodley could choose the fight on short notice. Expect the MMA chances for Hendricks vs. Condit to be very aggressive, although Hendricks will likely be a small favorite as a result of his wrestling advantage. Jansen vs. Held Postponed Again An injury to Marcin Held has forced the postponement of his Bellator Season 7 Lightweight Tournament Final against Dave Jansen for the next time, according to a report by MMAjunkie.com. The lightweights were set to meet at Bellator 84 but the Indian Athletic Commission wouldn’t allow to enter the match and the struggle was embarrassingly scratched. The rain date, which was set to take place was rearranged as well, and both will meet at Bellator 93.
