MMAOddsBreaker.com can now officially confirm UFC Heavyweight Stipe Miocic has been forced from his upcoming UFC Fight Night 76 bout against Ben Rothwell due to an unspecified training accident. Both top 10 fighters were scheduled to throw in the co-main occasion of following Saturday’s (October 24, 2015) occasion in Dublin, Ireland, which is headlined by the lightweight battle involving Joseph Duffy and Dustin Poirier and will be streamed live on UFC Fight Pass. Miocic (#3 ranked HW) was coming off the very remarkable performance of his career, a fifth round TKO stoppage of former title challenger Mark Hunt where he set a UFC heavyweight record for the majority of strikes landed at a single fight. He’s won four of his last five fights with his only loss being a decision against former champion Junior dos Santos. Rothwell (#7 rated HW) is now riding a three-fight win series which included surprising first round angry stoppage successes over the Matt Mitrione and Alistair Overeem. There’s been no word yet regarding whether or not UFC matchmakers are going to have the ability to get a last minute replacement for Miocic or when Rothwell is going to be forced off the fight card.
