McCullough vs. Hicks Is a No-Go

After being announced on multiple sites mere days ago MMAWeekly is now reporting the following:

Almost as soon as it was revealed "Razor" Rob McCullough's fight with Marcus Hicks has been scratched from WEC 38 on Jan. 25 in San Diego, Calif.

McCullough's manager, Ken Pavia of MMA Agents, informed MMAWeekly.com of the change. Citing a grueling 16-week camp the former lightweight champion went through in preparation for his last fight with Donald Cerrone at WEC 36, Pavia said McCullough would not be ready to face Hicks.

So I guess my excitement was for nothing.  I really liked the potential matchup here but we're not going to be seeing it in January.  Hopefully Hicks gets a replacement if he feels like he wants to fight in January.

As for McCullough, I think it's smart that he make sure he is in shape and ready to go because another loss would really leave him in a bad spot in the WEC.

Regardless, I'm quite bummed out after hearing this news.

Probably for the best. Marcus Hicks would prob snap Razors neck.
