Machida fight at UFC 89 canceled!
Lyoto Machida himself told Tatame magazine that he is out of UFC 89 on October 18th, in what was to be an exciting matchup against Thiago Silva. After Thiago Silva had pulled out of the fight due to injury, the UFC continued to look for an opponent for him, and it appears they couldn’t.

“It’s sad because I was focused, training hard and prepared, but this kind of things happen.”

What is not known is when he will be fighting again. The 205# weight class is stacked and there are plenty of good matchups around. Rashad’s KO of Liddell tosses him into the picture as well.
