forrest griffin withdraws from nogueira fight

Forrest Griffin has withdrawn from the UFC 114 fight against Antonio Rogerio “Lil Nog” Nogueira scheduled for May 29 in Las Vegas due to a shoulder injury.

Griffin, who reportedly suffered the injury during training, was hoping to build on a split-decision win this past November over Tito Oritz at UFC 106.

Although there has been no official announcement of the change, a  replacement opponent for Nogueira is currently being sought.
