The welterweight debut of former “Ultimate Fighter” 185-pound cast member Matt Riddle will have to wait. He has suffered a knee injury that will force him out of his upcoming bout against Ryan Thomas on the undercard of UFC 91 on Nov. 15.

bummer
Oh no!
wait....don't care...phew.
kid fights with heart and doesn't get too caught up. i like him, he's no jobber.
i'm fine with him, just not sure he's PPV material in the "Superbowl of MMA" just yet.
Replace him with Lawler, Villasenor, Radach, or another established 185'er who belongs there. That's what I say.
i agree with that. he is an undercard fighter at this point.

Agreed
Welterweight isn't middleweight, but you are onto something there MX
oh I thought it was at 185. Good catch.
So replace him with Jake Shields, Nick Diaz, or Paul Daley.
fuck..... how would you like to find out that your opponent just changed to one of those guys?
I don't understand the move to welterweight, i'd rather spend more time in the gym getting stronger/bigger than throw myself from the weakest division to strongest in the promotion after i got through on a reality show scholarship of sorts.
He was also my favorite fighter of the season and reminds me of my best friend.
Not to mention kicks it in his moms basement and gets high / trains. What a life!
that sucks
Whaaat? Wasn't he training this week at AZCS?
Who cares?
2jujit2quit2 - Whaaat? Wasn't he training this week at AZCS?
yep he tore his knee while training in AZ. He will be back.
MountainMedic - fuck..... how would you like to find out that your opponent just changed to one of those guys?
I was thinking the same thing..."Who am I fighting now?? Fuck that I feel a case of tonsilitis coming on Coff Coff"
Must be hard to replace someone with a 1-0 career record.
fights been filled.
Probably can.
0-0 ufc pro debut just doesn't make sense in this age. no sense at all.
