An arm injury has forced Pedro Rizzo (19-9) out of next month's ProElite 2 headliner with fellow ex-UFC heavyweight Tim Sylvia (29-7).

Rizzo today announced via Twitter that he recently suffered a partial tear of his left triceps tendon.

MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) could not immediately reach ProElite officials to determine if a Plan B is in place or if a replacement is being sought.

"So I would like to apologize to ... ProElite and specially to Tim Sylvia because I can't be in the ring on Nov. 5 to face him," Rizzo stated.

The same day Andreas Kraniotakes took to MMAjunkie.com Radio and
discussed his long-awaited big-show opportunity at next month's ProElite
2 event, the heavyweight was scratched from the event.


On Wednesday, Kraniotakes (12-4) posted a video message saying he was forced out of his headliner with ex-UFC heavyweight champ Tim Sylvia (29-7).


According to a report from MMAFighting.com, an unidentified replacement fighter has been selected and awaits commission approval.
MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) could not immediately reach commission or ProElite officials for comment.

In fact, it was the Illinois State Professional Athletic Commission that
halted Kraniotakes' participation in the event. Officials denied the
fighter a license due to the German's lack of sanctioned fights on his
pro record.

What does "lack of sanctioned fights" mean? Has he zero sanctioned fights?

I was interested in seeing him give it a go.

Not sure. Are they worried he was in some fixes? Or that he wasn't truly fighting other pros?
