Injury Forces Carlos Condit Out Of UFC 108 Fight With Paul Daley
Carlos Condit has suffered an injury and has been forced to withdraw from his UFC 108 contest against hard-hitting Brit Paul Daley, MMAUnltd.com has learned from a source close to the contest.
We were told that a replacement is being sought for the event on January 2nd.
This card has suffered loss after loss and we’re now looking at a situation where Gilbert Yvel would be in the featured undercard fight (against Junior dos Santos). Either this show needs to be canceled or taken off of PPV because Rashad Evans v. Thiago Silva with no other draw is not going to get many people to shell out $50.
Paul Daley has already commented on the situation to Fighters Only:
“I’d [accept] any fight.. I just wanna fight. Condit is a big pussy IMO, I have inside information on that dude....it’s all good as long as I fight,” he wrote, a comment that is sure to enrage former WEC welterweight champion Condit.
A source close to Daley said the British welterweight is under the impression Condit had not begun a proper training camp, and is questioning how long Condit had known he would not be fighting. “Paul has spent a shitload of money on this training camp out of his own pocket, and his team have bought non-refundable tickets to go out to the US for the fight so hopefully Paul gets another opponent for this card, he is really pissed off,” the source said.
In his post on The Underground, Daley went on to appeal to UFC matchmaker Joe Silva for a new opponent, suggesting a couple of names he would like to fight. “Koshcheck...is a tough motherf*cker, but I accept the challenge. Hazellet has sick subs, and is dangerous, but I accept that fight too. Any top level fighter in 170lbs with a winning record. Joe make it happen.”
