RUMOR: Tarec injured out of Rick Story fight

Don't know if it's been posted, but on mma fighting, they're reporting that Tarec is injured and the UFC is looking for a replacement to fight Rick Story at UFC fight night 88. Phone Post 3.0

God damn that guy gets hurt a lot Phone Post 3.0

That was one of the fights I was looking forward to. It says in the article, Saffedine will go to the doctor on Monday to get a final opinion, but if the UFC is already looking for a replacement, that's not promising. Phone Post 3.0

Replace him with Albert Tumenov.

Replace him with Albert Tumenov.

Good idea. He called out Rick earlier in the year.

I bet it'll end up being some last minute regional fighter though. Phone Post 3.0

According to sources, the UFC is looking for a potential replacement for Saffiedine because he suffered a knee injury towards the end of the training camp for his May 29 fight against Rick Story. Saffiedine hasn't been officially ruled out of the fight just yet, however, the promotion is doing its due diligence since the fight is seven days away.

"Most likely, I will not be able to fight this weekend," Saffiedine told MMAFighting.com. "I am heading now to Vegas to see the UFC doctor. If UFC will not get a replacement and the doctor says I am good to go in a couple weeks hopefully [we can fight]. I will know better tomorrow after the doctor visit."

All right so that could mean Matt Brown / Tumenov for the winner / loser of this fight?
