| http://www.mmajunkie.com/news/2013/02/rory-macdonald-scratched-from-ufc-158-johny-hendricks-now-meets-carlos-condit?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitterCanadian contender Rory MacDonald (14-1 MMA, 5-1 UFC) has suffered a neck injury in training and has been forced to withdraw from a planned UFC 158 matchup with Carlos Condit (28-6, 5-2). However, the "Natural Born Killer" will still face a fellow top-ranked opponent as Johny Hendricks (14-1, 9-1) has agreed to fill the open slot. USA TODAY Sports and MMAjunkie.com ( www.mmajunkie.com) learned of the shuffle while speaking with UFC President Dana White late Monday evening. "Once we knew Rory had to withdraw, we started looking for potential replacements," White said. "Johny Hendricks called me and said he wanted that fight, so we're going to give it to him a shot at Carlos." Condit and MacDonald were scheduled for the co-main event of "UFC 158: St-Pierre vs. Diaz," which takes place March 16 at Montreal's Bell Centre. The winner was expected to hold an envious position in the company's ultra-competitive 170-pound division and potentially earn a shot at the welterweight title. That might have left Hendricks, who recently dispatched of perennial contender Martin Kampmann in just 46 seconds, again waiting his turn. Hendricks was already on the fight card at UFC 158, where he was expected to face Jake Ellenberger (28-6, 7-2). But by moving into the matchup with Condit, a onetime title challenger, "Bigg Rigg" now likely boosts his chances for earning a title shot of his own with a victory. Ellenberger is still expected to compete at the event against an opponent to be determined. White also revealed his first selection to fill MacDonald's position was incoming Strikeforce welterweight champion Tarec Saffiedine (14-3, 0-0). However, the UFC boss said the Belgian fighter turned down the opportunity, allowing Hendricks to step in against Condit. UFC 158 features a welterweight title bout between current champion Georges St-Pierre and former Strikeforce title holder Nick Diaz. The evening's main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and Facebook. |

| Hey Nate, looks like we had someone drop out of UFC 158. I see you dont have any plans that night, can you please fill in? Dana hates leaving cages side seats open for big fights like Tarec Saffedine vs Jake Ellenberger. | |

| Sounds like Ellenberger-Woodley is in the works. Still good fights but I'm bummed, Condit-Rory rematch was high up on my list of fights over the next 6 or so months
I think Condit is a bad matchup for Hendricks | |

I think Condit is a bad matchup for Hendricks I actually think Hendricks is a bad matchup for Condit here. Jackson is going to have to come up with something truly silly to keep Condit from engaging Johny. | |

| I think Condits range and more technical and varied striking can cause Hendricks a lot if problems. | |

| Maia should be closer to a title shot than ellenberger, woodley, and kampmann. | |

| Nate Marquardt steps in to meet Jake Ellenberger at UFC 158 in Montrealhttp://www.mmajunkie.com/news/2013/02/nate-marquardt-steps-in-to-meet-jake-ellenberger-at-ufc-158Former Strikeforce welterweight champion Nate Marquardt (32-11-2 MMA, 10-4 UFC) will meet Jake Ellenberger (28-6 MMA, 7-2 UFC) at UFC 158, a source close to the event told MMAjunkie.com ( www.mmajunkie.com) on Monday evening. Marquardt fills a spot left vacant by Johny Hendricks, who was tapped to meet onetime UFC title challenger Carlos Condit when Rory MacDonald was forced to withdraw from the event due to injury. Marquardt vs. Ellenberger still serves on the March 16 event's pay-per-view main card, which follows prelims on FX and Facebook. UFC 158 takes place at Montreal's Bell Centre. Marquardt hopes to rebound after losing his Strikeforce welterweight belt in the promotion's final event, which took place this past month in Oklahoma City. Tarec Saffiedine battered the onetime UFC middleweight title challenger with leg kicks en route to a unanimous-decision win. In his previous outing, Marquardt, a former UFC middleweight title challenger, captured the Strikeforce belt with a fourth-round KO of Tyron Woodley, who also volunteered to fight Ellenberger at UFC 158. Marquardt returns to the octagon two years after failing to receive medical clearance to headline UFC on VERSUS 4 against Rick Story, which prompted the promotion to release him. Later, he revealed that a regimen of testosterone-replacement therapy caused his scratch from the event. He got a second chance with the Zuffa-owned Strikeforce and later returned to the UFC when the promotion was shut down. Ellenberger returns to the cage following a decision over win Jay Hieron this past October at UFC on FX 5. Although far from flashy, the win nevertheless put him back on the right track after Martin Kampmann knocked him out at The Ultimate Fighter 15 Finale, which snapped a six-fight win streak that put him on the list of future contenders. |

| I hope Hendricks knocks Condit out. I remember a press conference not that long ago where Carlos was being disrespectful with his body language anytime Johny was answering a question.
Nate vs. Ellenberger damn that's tasty.
I hope this means we get Maia vs. MacDonald later in the year. | |
