Mike Swick was set to fight for the first time in nearly a year. Instead, after losing his opponent, he’ll wait some more.
Swick was scheduled to face David Mitchell at the UFC’s Fight Night 23 “Fight for the Troops” card at Fort Hood, Texas, on Jan. 22. But according to his Facebook page, when Mitchell had to pull out of the fight with an injury it forced Swick to take a look at his own medical situation. The decision was made to pull off the card, as well, rather than wait for a replacement opponent.
