    Fighter misses out on UFC debut with ankle issue: Sean Loeffler suffers injury in warm ups

    By Steve Cofield | Cagewriter – Wed, Feb 15, 2012 7:47 PM EST

    Dana White tweets confirmation about the injury

    What a bummer for Sean Loeffler. The 29-year-old was set to make his debut at UFC on Fuel TV 1, but apparently injured himself just before the fight.

    MMAjunkie reported that Loeffler's opponent Buddy Roberts, also making his debut, was paid his win and show money. Loeffler was also paid his show money. That's a great gesture for two guys who were minutes away from laying it on the line.

      Loeffler looked beastly at weigh-ins was really looking forward to seeing what he was going to bring to the cage, its a shame and hopefully he gets back soon.

      That ankle is almost big enough to make Nutcracker want to put it in his mouth.

        What? That didn't make any sense. I think you're talking about OGnutcracker but it still doesn't make sense. Does he like to put big ankles in his mouth?

        For his debut? More likely 8-10k to show with a matching bonus for a win.

      I noticed he has some sort of religious tattoo on his leg. i'd wager any amount of money he's got the standard D-bag armband or tribal tattoo on his bicep

      Easy way to get your show money and easier way for his opponent Buddy Roberts to get his win and show money!!

        Loeffler's mistake having Chuck Norris as a warm up partner.
