UFC middleweight Alan Belcher revealed on Friday that he had suffered a fracture on his spine that will take him out of the UFC 153 event in Rio de Janeiro. That revelation came the same day it was reported that his opponent, Vitor Belfort, was being moved to a fight with Jon Jones at UFC 152, so Belcher said the move was a "blessing in disguise."
With the loss of that fight, UFC officials then decided to move a bout between Phil Davis and Wagner Prado to that card in Brazil. The fight, a rematch of their UFC on Fox 4 bout, was going to move to Minneapolis on Oct. 5 after an eye poke ended things early and resulted in a no contest. Now it will simply take place one week later in Prado's home country.
