Top 10 UFC Fight Card Letdowns of 2009
It seems that 2009 was the year of injuries and letdowns for the UFC and fans. Almost every card had some last-minute alteration to it. Here are our picks for the top 10 letdowns of UFC fight cards in 2009.
10. UFC 98 – Frank Mir vs Brock Lesnar
What Happened: Mir pulled out due to a back surgery. Fortunately, the fight was rescheduled to UFC 100.
Disappointment Level: “Low” The only annoying thing about this rescheduling was waiting two months for a better event.
9. UFC 108 – Gabriel Gonzaga vs Junior Dos Santos
What Happened: Gonzaga pulled out due to a staph infection. The fight has been rescheduled to an unknown date.
Disappointment Level: “Low to moderate” Santos looked great against Cro Cop and it would’ve been awesome to see his skills against a contender like Gonzaga. Other than that, it’s not a fight to lose sleep over.
UPDATE - Dos Santos is facing Gilbert Yvel at UFC 108
8. UFC 99 – Cain Velasquez vs Heath Herring
What Happened: Heath canceled due to an injury. Cheick Kongo stepped in a few weeks before the fight with little time to train and was beaten by unanimous decision.
Disappointment Level: “Moderate” At this point, people were more interested in this rising star than they were the matchup. We were just as satisfied seeing Cain maul Kongo.
