The UFC on FOX 9 card has taken another hit to its roster with the removal of Dodson vs. Jorgensen.
The event, which goes down on December 14th was supposed to feature a lightweight title fight between Anthony Pettis and Josh Thomson. Instead, a shift in the TUF Finale main event will see ‘Mighty Mouse’ versus Benavidez come in and save the show.
With Dodson injured, the UFC is currently searching for a replacement opponent in Scott Jorgensen’s flyweight debut.
Both fighters took to twitter to express their discontent with the situation:
@JohnDodsonMMA I'm bummed man heal up.
