| Anthony Perosh Out, Krzysztof Soszynski Now Draws Igor Pokrajac UFC 131 News: Anthony Perosh Out, Krzysztof Soszynski Now Draws Igor Pokrajac | MMAWeekly.com Quote:
Wednesday was a busy day for UFC matchmaker Joe Silva. He had several fights came to fruition, while numerous others fell apart.
Krzysztof Soszynski’s UFC 131 bout falls into the latter category. His original opponent, Anthony Perosh, had to withdraw due to a torn retina. He was immediately replaced by Igor Pokrajac. The promotion tweeted the news Wednesday evening.
Soszynski (25-11-1) comes into the bout having healed up from three recent surgeries. He had both of his knees cleaned out, as well as surgery to repair a deviated septum.
“I’m coming off three surgeries (about) 10 weeks ago,” Soszynski told MMAWeekly.com recently. “It’s been a while since my last fight. I’m looking to get back in there in that Octagon and lay some punches on somebody; it’s been a little while.”

I agree that this fight is much better than any fight with Anthony Perosh. The Hippo is a great team player.....skilled on the ground too.
He looked decent at LHW. But I think he is probably one of the least well rounded and least skilled fighters at 205. I hope this injury and time off will help him keep improving his standup skills and most importantly, his wrestling.
Again...looked great last fight....hope he gets well soon.
