Renan Barao injured, out of UFC 161

Brazilian MMA portal Tatame is reporting that Barao, the UFC interim bantamweight champion, has injured his right foot, and is not expected to recover in time for UFC 161 in Winnipeg, Manitoba.  This is a big blow to a card that some were already decrying as “lackluster.”

No replacement has been announced, but we here at MMA Sucka will keep you updated as information becomes available.
