Thomas Gifford seeks new opponent for UFC Tampa after Brok Weaver withdrawal

Thomas Gifford is in danger of missing out on Saturday’s UFC show with opponent Brok Weaver out.

MMA Fighting confirmed with sources that Weaver has been forced to withdraw from his upcoming lightweight bout opposite Gifford at UFC Tampa, following an initial report by MMA Junkie. The reason for Weaver’s withdrawal was not specified, though the fighter himself took to social media to address comments from Gifford directly, claiming that he is not having issues with making 155 pounds nor is he injured.

155 ain't a hard time for me.
