wow... another one... Rory Markham has been forced to withdraw from his upcoming UFC 108 fight against Martin Kampmann from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Jan. 2, according to MMAWeekly. Markham injured his achilles tendon during training and has been advised by his doctor to stay off it in hope of preventing a possible tear. It's the second time this year the Chicago native has pulled out of a fight after getting hurt -- he left TJ Grant hanging just five days before they were scheduled to meet at The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 9 Finale in Las Vegas back on June 20. This latest injury comes just days after the news that Dong Hyun "Stun Gun" Kim won't be joining Chris Lytle at UFC 110 in Australia after getting hurt with an undisclosed injury. No potential substitute for "The Hitman" has been named at this time.

This is the most cursed event in UFC History. This blows away UFC 85.

It seems like we can't even go a week without reading about a fighter that is forced out of UFC #108...This is friggin' insane...I wonder what Dana White must think. I mean, how many changes has he made so far??

It's probably best if Rashad just locks himself in a panic room until the 2nd. Even then, he'll probably choke on a Funyun or something.
