Yet again, Chad Mendes has been abandoned without an opponent. As first reported by Sherdog.com, Clay Guida has an injury that has forced him to pull from his forthcoming UFC on FOX 7 matchup against Mendes, which was set to take place April 20 at HP Pavilion at San Jose, Calif.. It is the third competitor to pull from conflicts with Mendes in the past elections, following Hacran Dias was scratched with an accident at UFC on FX 6 and Manny Gamburyan pulled out of his UFC 157 match with Mendes later he had been hurt in practice. Mendes (13-1) is one of the top-five featherweights in the world according to the MMA Fighter Rankings. He’s an amazing wrestler with KO power, and because dropping to UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo at UFC 142, he’s bounced back with KO wins over Cody McKenzie and Yaotzin Meza to reaffirm his place as a top featherweight. No hint yet on who will replace Mendes, however it is potential Frankie Edgar, Cub Swanson, or Dennis Siver requires his place, though it’s likely if that’s the case Mendes is going to be shifted to a later card. Formiga vs. Cariaso set for UFC on FX 8 A battle between top-ranked flyweights is set to go down this May in Brazil, as the UFC has added a matchup between Jussier Formiga and Chris Cariaso to the upcoming UFC on FX 8 card. TATAME.com was the first to break news of the bout. Formiga (14-2) is coming off a TKO loss in his UFC debut to high rival John Dodson, while Cariaso (14-4) lost via entry to John Moraga in UFC 155, but both fighters are extremely talented and a triumph over a another puts them right back into the flyweight title film. This is a pretty close fight, so expect the MMA chances to be competitive when they are released. I’d guess that Formiga would be a tiny favorite over Cariaso, who, although talented, doesn’t possess the hype behind him that Formiga does. UFC Sweden 2 adds Cella vs. Troeng The UFC additional a fight between TUF 17 middleweights into the upcoming UFC Sweden 2 card, as Swede Tor Troeng takes on American Adam Cella in the April 6 event scheduled to occur at Ericsson Globe Arena in Stockholm. MMAnytt.se first reported that the bout, which will will indicate the official UFC introduction of both fighters. Troeng (15-4-1) and also Cella (4-0) were both eliminated from TUF 17 after being knocked out on the series, Cella’s loss being the brutal spinning hook kick KO by Uriah Hall. With Troeng fighting in front of his hometown crowd and Cella come off among the worst KOs in recent memory, expect Troeng to open as a strong -200 favorite, while Cella will surely be the underdog, and is definitely someone you need ton’t place your cash on.
