Amir Injured, Off UFN Card
Quote:
The run of bad luck for "Ultimate Fighter" season 7 winner, Amir Sadollah, continues in his post reality show career as MMAWeekly.com has confirmed that he has been forced out of his upcoming bout against Nick Catone at UFC Fight Night on Feb 7.
At this time the severity of his injury has not been confirmed, but sources indicated that the fighter suffered a broken clavicle in training that pushed him out of the fight. Calls to Sadollah's management were not immediately returned.
Sadollah and Catone were originally scheduled to meet in November 2007, but a last second leg injury forced the "Ultimate Fighter" winner off the card and instead of finding a replacement, the UFC opted to push their match-up back to February instead.
Before his previously scheduled match in Nov, Sadollah had a leg infection that put him in the hospital and out of action for an extended period of time, and if the injury reports are accurate, this latest ailment could keep him sidelined for an undetermined amount of time as well.
No replacement for the fight has been named at this time, but according to sources close to Catone, the UFC is searching for another fighter to plug into the spot vacated by Sadollah.
Stay tuned to MMAWeekly.com for more information on this story as it develops.

Sadollah seems to have become the David Tyrell for the new generation.

Even though this is not his fault, I hope next time we see Amir he is really impressive. I know it's not being done on purpose, but it's actually making me want to see him fight already.

This is just getting frustrating. As Kenny Florian would say, stop the excessive pommeling (sp?).

Is Sadollah ever going to fight? Well, from the looks of things, this had the potential to be an upset anyways. Well, not really an upset, but name recognition wise, it would have been. I want to see Sadollah succeed and he should get a can for his first fight off of the ultimate fighter in the UFC.
