There have been a lot of injuries lately, and yet another Nordic fighter is forced to withdraw from his scheduled fight. Sweden’s Andreas Ståhl is not going to fight Alex Garcia in Brisbane at UFC Fight Night 33. Ståhl himself was disappointed but focused on the next challenge when MMAViking.com talked to him:

It really sucks getting injured this close to a fight. But I’ll be back and then I’ll show you Northern steel!

Instead Ben Wall will jump in and fight Alex Garcia on a two week notice. Ben is a member of TUF: The Smashes and this will be his debut for the UFC.
