UFC
welterweight Brian Foster has been forced to withdraw from a fight with
Sean Pierson at UFC 129 when an MRI – required by the Ontario Athletic
Commission to compete at the event – revealed a brain hemorrhage.
Marc Fiore, who
trains Foster at the H.I.T. Squad, today told MMAjunkie.com that while his fighter is OK, he is required to
undergo another MRI in six weeks to assure no permanent damage is present.

Fiore believes Foster’s hemorrhage may have occurred during a hard sparring session two days before the MRI was taken.
