Rumors of Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic’s possible scratch from next week’s UFC 119 event aren’t true, according to the UFC’s head honcho.
A report from the Croatian site Index.hr stated that Filipovic suffered an eye injury while training and couldn’t get medical clearance for the upcoming fight.
However, in a Twitter message, UFC president Dana White today stated Filipovic “is fine” and that the report “is not true.”
