Carlos Condit injury forces cancellation of UFC 108 bout with Paul Daley

After weeks of searching for a main event for the first event of 2010, the UFC has now lost a planned co-feature bout for UFC 108.

MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) has learned from a source close to Carlos Condit (24-5 MMA, 1-1 UFC) that the "Natural Born Killer" has suffered an injury in training and has been forced to withdraw from a main-card bout with British slugger Paul Daley (22-8-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC).

No word yet on whether the UFC will seek a replacement opponent for Daley at the Jan. 2 event.

Featuring a light heavyweight contenders matchup between former champ Rashad Evans and Brazilian slugger Thiago Silva, "UFC 108: Evans vs. Silva" takes place at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas and airs live on pay per view.

In a card lacking in star power, many MMA observers were pointing toward the Condit vs. Daley matchup as a potential bright spot.

MMAjunkie.com was told that Condit's injury was to one of his hands, though the exact nature of the injury and a timetable for the 25-year-old's return was not revealed.

The WEC's final welterweight champion, Condit was seeking to build on the momentum of a razor-thin split-decision victory over Jake Ellenberger at UFC Fight Night 19 in September. Condit had dropped his UFC debut, also by split decision, in a "Fight of the Year" candidate with Martin Kampmann in April.

The main-card bout was to be Condit's first on pay per view.

Meanwhile, Daley was hoping to follow-up a shocking, first-round TKO win over Martin Kampmann at UFC 103 with another impressive outing.

Following the September win, Daley said he would be willing to fight anyone the UFC put in front of him.

"I'll do it again, and I don't care who's standing in front of me," Daley said. "I'm just going to be the same fighter and go out there to finish people."

The 26-year-old Team Rough House product has won 10 of his past 12 contests, and "Semtex" has earned 17 of his 22 career wins by knockout or TKO.
