According to MMA Mania a back injury has forced Karo Parisyan off of tomorrow nights fight card. His scheduled fight against Yoshiyuki Yoshida has been cancelled and UFC 88 will now feature 9 fights.

No word yet on whether this fight will be re-scheduled or how long Karo might be out of action. This hurts tomorrow nights card as Karo is a name that many people can identify with. Here's to hoping he didn't simply panic at the last moment as we now know that 'The Heat' does suffer from panic attacks.
