Gabe Ruediger has withdrawn from next month’s lightweight bout against Paul Kelly at UFC 123 due to a groin injury.

“I’ve been training with injuries for this whole camp and I’ve been trying to just work around them,” Ruediger explained Sunday evening on his official website. “One injury that has been giving me daily issues was a groin strain. This happened about three weeks ago wrestling. I was wrapping it and just enduring the pain, but Wednesday, I was back to wrestling and my groin tore all the way through. As I laid on the mat I knew it was bad, but it wasn’t until Friday that I realized that it would be impossible to be ready for my upcoming bout.”

You know how it goes in MMA circles: When two guys have beef they settle it with a 15-minute therapy session inside the cage. Next thing you know, problem solved. Hugs and high-fives all around. It’s pretty much the best formula we know of for conflict resolution that doesn’t involve some bullshit like talking or mutual understanding or compromise.
