UFC middleweight Alan Belcher is out of his UFC Fight Night 22 main event fight with Demian Maia after undergoing surgery on his right eye, he wrote on his Twitter.
Belcher said the following things:
Sorry to all my fans, demian Maia & the ufc
While I was in brazil I started losing my vision in my right eye. I saw a dr that told me to go back to us immediately. My friend/surgeon from biloxi got me an emergency surgery scheduled in alabama now just trying to recover. No contact for 6 weeks. Sorry to my trainers. Sorry to ufc & demian Maia, I know he has been training specifically for me. Sorry to my fans as well. As long as I get released from dr I will try to make ufn 22 to see my fans and watch the fights
It's a detached retina
Belcher also attached the following video to his Twitter.

Negative chance Vitor Belfort fights on a Fight Night card
He already has his title shot guaranteed. Probably Kendall Grove.
The very mention of Alan Belcher.
Cue betting odds from Nevada coupled with insane doses of nonsensical babble shit.
In related news, bummer. Was looking forward to seeing where these two boys stack up in the MW division. No way Belfort takes this either, isn’t he a shoe-in for the next shitle tot….?! Leben is a great shout tho El Mexican.
