MMA ODDS AND ENDS FOR FRIDAY – NURMAGOMEDOV INJURED AGAIN

In the news of this year, best UFC lightweight Khabib Nurmagomedov is injured again. Based on reports, Nurmagomedov was made to pull from his forthcoming Ultimate Fighter 22 Finale co-headlining bout against Tony Ferguson because of a rib injury. There are preliminary discussions but as of today, nothing is set in stone. That makes it the third right fight Nurmagomedov hasn’t been able to see to completion. It started with a planned UFC 178 fight against Donald Cerrone which»The Eagle» was pressured from after a knee injury. When the bout was rescheduled for UFC 187 he reaggravated the same knee and he’s out of the December fight. Nurmagomedov hasn’t fought at April of 2014 because a unanimous decision victory over Lightweight Champion Rafael Dos Anjos. Based on how long it takes for him to recuperate from this rib blow off, he could be on a two-year break before he sees the Octagon again. Ross Pearson vs. Francisco Trinaldo — UFC Fight Night 81 While one UFC bout was cancelled, another was announced as recent winners Ross Pearson and Francisco Trinaldo have been supposed to throw down in Boston this upcoming January. Pearson was victorious in his last bout over Paul Felder via unanimous conclusion despite being a heavy underdog. Trinaldo did the same thing, winning through round TKO over Chad Laprise as a dog that is massive. Trinaldo has more momentum, although this is a pretty evenly matched fight. The Brazilian has won four consecutive spells and is coming off the best success of his profession while Pearson has been unable to string any wins together in his last eight fights. While Pearson has more name recognition, it would not surprise me to see Trinaldo open as the little betting favorite this time around due to his recent series of success.
