Being injured means never having to say you’re sorry ... or something like that.
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) welterweight Gunnar Nelson, who rubs elbows with top star Conor McGregor and is something of big deal overseas, was forced to withdraw from his UFC Fight Night 99 main event opposite Dong Hyun Kim after injuring his ankle.
And he’s “very sorry” for the mishap.
UFC Fight Night 99 takes place on Nov. 19 in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
Nelson rebounded from a unanimous decision loss to Demian Maia by submitting Albert Tumenov at UFC Fight Night 87 back in May.
