UFC Fight Night 93’s Michelle Waterson suffers broken finger in training, posts x-ray

It’s been over a year since Michelle Waterson made her UFC debut, and now “The Karate Hottie” may have to wait a bit longer before getting back in the cage.

The 30-year-old was scheduled to face Aisling Daly in a few weeks at UFC Fight Night 93 in Hamburg, but revealed on Saturday that she suffered a broken finger this week that’s likely to take her out of the event.

FU%* ……….. so this happened on Thursday morning. The fact that I’m so close to the fight and this shit happened just really pisses me off. I know my will is being tested, and I will push forward. My fight has definitely not been fought in the cage this last year, trust me when I say I will be better for it all……. but Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. That is all

Penick’s Analysis: Highly unfortunate setback for Waterson. She won her debut last year, but these injuries keep piling up on her and it’s kept her from following up on that. The fight with Daly would have been a good opportunity to reestablish herself, but now it’s unclear just how much longer she’ll have to wait in order to do that.
