Mirco Cro Cop has called in sick for work for this Friday's Bellator 200 (25 May). Roy "Big Country" Nelson got the Cro Cop fight as a consolation prize for losing to Matt "Meathead" Mitrione in the heavyweight tournament. The nature of Cro Cop's injury is undisclosed (as per usual) but the last time he was hurt he put his ass in a crack by trying to sneak in a little HGH to accelerate the healing. Just another UFC fighter who made a bad decision when pressured into fighting while hurt by Dana White.

And speaking of the UFC, Alistair Overeem -vs- Curtis Blaydes at UFC 225 got demoted to the undercard to make room for Holly Holm -vs- Megan Anderson.

It's got to sting when you're a former title contender and you get bumped off the PPV in favor of two women who between them weigh just about what you do in street clothes.

The good news is, at least he didn't get bumped all the way to the pre-prelims.
