"I have two injuries. The foot injury, I fight with Miocic, Velasquez or anybody, no problem. But my back hurt a lot, with my back injury, I wouldn't fight Miocic or Velasquez. I didn't have a good feeling for the fight with this injury. My foot injury, I got an X-ray, and it's not broken, it's a small fracture. It's not nothing, but you can't give 100-percent. I don't kick for two weeks. For two weeks I had zero kicks to the right side."

I thought that Werdum didn't want to fight a different opponent on short notice but it turns out that's not the case. Werdum actually had two injuries. He first injured his foot, but he was willing to fight Stipe or Cain with it. However, Werdum lated received an additional injury to his back and he would be unable to fight either fighter with his back injury. He also says that he will be willing to fight Stipe once he heals up.
