UFC Record Breakdown
This welterweight scrap was supposed to go down, but Nicolas Dalby had to pull out with an injury just days before UFC Vegas 117. Fans were hyped to see these two bang it out, and now Wells is left without a dance partner. The fight's been scrapped entirely, no replacement lined up. Wells was riding high after that unanimous decision win over Themba Gorimbo back in November, landing 59 of 84 strikes and controlling the fight for over six minutes.
This one would've heated up in the pocket exchanges where both guys love to let their hands go.
That win snapped a rough stretch where he'd dropped two straight, including that nasty anaconda choke loss to Carlston Harris. The switch stance fighter from Renzo Gracie Philly was looking to build some real momentum. Dalby was coming off his own bounce back moment, a split decision win over Saygid Izagakhmaev in Qatar where he landed 87 strikes and stuffed both takedown attempts. Before that though, Randy Brown caught him with a punch in the second round, and he'd also dropped a split to Rinat Fakhretdinov.
The Danish veteran's been in wars with everyone, including that sick knee finish of Gabriel Bonfim in Brazil. Now both guys are back to the drawing board. Wells needs another opponent to keep his winning streak alive, while Dalby's gotta heal up and get back in there. The welterweight division keeps moving, and neither can afford to sit on the sidelines too long.
