Mike Goldberg Out of UFC 155, No Set Date for his Return

With 2012 mercifully coming to an end, you had to imagine that at least one more fighter would be taken off of the year's final card due to the great injury curse. Sure enough, at the last possible second a key member of UFC 155 has been removed from the card, causing the organization to scramble to find an adequate replacement. Okay, he's not a fighter - and he's not even a casualty of the injury curse - but damn it, this year has been brutal for last-second withdrawals. Veteran announcer Mike Goldberg will not be calling the fights tonight at UFC 155. Originally, his absence from tonight's event was attributed to an illness, but it turns out that this isn't quite the case. Via MMAJunkie: UFC President Dana White on Friday confirmed the change to MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) but could not offer specifics into the situation or when Goldberg is expected to return to his post. "He's taking time off and is not working this weekend," White said. "I don't know when he will be back.
