Roger Gracie (2-0) has been forced to withdraw from his heavyweight match versus “Diesel” Travis Wiuff (53-11) at Sengoku 5 in Tokyo September 28th due to a rib injury, his management told Fight Website Wednesday.

Gracie tore an intercostal muscle after being kicked in the ribs during training, and was advised by his physiotherapist not to train for at least four weeks.

At this time World Victory Road has not yet officially pulled Gracie from the card, nor announced a new opponent for Wiuff.
