Serra Injured, Withdraws From UFC 79 Card

UFC President Dana White announced Thursday that Matt Serra will have to withdraw from the UFC 79 card on December 29th due to an injury sustained during training earlier this week.

The current UFC welterweight champion, who was scheduled to fight Matt Hughes on the year-end card, suffered a herniated disc in his lower back on Monday following a routine training session in his Long Island gym.

Ain't that about a bitch? That had the makings of a classic fight, atleast there is still Chuckie/Silva to look forward to.

I would be bitching, I really would... but now St. Pierre is taking on Hughes. And I can never get enough of those two in the cage with each other. They put on incredible matches every single time. This card has only gotten stronger with St. Pierre added.

AWWWW! A classic ruined because of one messed up training session. Damn.
