Bellator Fighting Championships female champion Zoila Gurgel (11-1 MMA,
5-0 BFC) has been forced to withdraw from a planned Bellator 57
non-title fight with Carina Damm (17-8 MMA, 0-0 BFC).

Gurgel announced the withdrawal today on her Twitter account, citing a torn ACL as the issue.

"I just took an MRI of my knee yesterday and results came back; I
completely tore my ACL," Gurgel stated. "If it was up to me, I still was
planning on fighting. I am able to still move forward and box, and I am
very confident in that and my cardio, but doctor and coaches say 'No
way in hell!' So it's off to surgery hopefully soon and back to the
training ASAP."

Gurgel was expected to fight at Bellator 57, which takes place Nov. 12
at Casino Rama in Rama, Ontario, Canada. Her fight with Damm was
expected to air on the evening's main card.

Bellator officials have yet to announce if Damm will remain on the card.
