Jason MacDonald has suffered another setback and will be pulling out of his UFC 124 bout with Rafael Natal due to a training injury, according to MMA Junkie.
Replacing MacDonald will be Canadian MMA veteran, Jesse Bongfeldt (21-6, pictured above with Randy Couture), who owns a submission win over TJ Grant, and has been to a decision only once in his 27-fight career.

I assume Bongfeldt has very high aspirations for this fight....

Bongfeldt's nickname is "Water."
Jesse “Water” Bongfeldt.
It’s really too bad the UFC will never let him use that when he’s fighting for them, because I’m sure Rogan would enjoy saying it…

Poor Jason
I think his body just can’t take it any more :(
Poor J-Mac
The man is one of my favorites and just one of the best people you will ever meet in any walk of life. Really tough seeing him go through some tough times.

I spoke to him briefly in Vancouver during UFC 115 when he had his cast on. Hopefully the injury is not serious and he comes back strong.

Seriously
I really hope Jason is able to bounce back from this quickly, get a good matchup, and stay healthy this time…the poor guy just can’t seem to get a break. I really wish him the best, as he seems like an extremely down-to-earth guy, but maybe he just needs to find a different line of work. =/

I realize in retrospect that this was probably an incredibly poor choice of words. Sorry J-Mac!

![Strikeforce star, Cung Le, tells Fight Hype he wants to fight in the UFC, and more specifically, on the UFC 139 card in his hometown of San Jose, perhaps against Chris Leben:
PC: What's your current situation as far as your Strikeforce/Showtime deal? Could the UFC sign you to fight right now?
CL: I definitely have a different contract than the other fighters. Right now, it's all up to the UFC. There may be some roadblocks with the Showtime deal and the Showtime side of things, but we will see what happens.
PC: When would you like something to be ironed out and possibly fight again?
CL: Ever since I heard that Cain [Velasquez] was going to be fighting in San Jose. I would love to be on the same card
PC: At one point, there was a poll done and a lot of people wanted to see Cung Le vs. Anderson Silva. Not only is there Anderson now, but a lot of guys have emerged in the 185-pound division as contenders, such as Brian Stann, Mark Munoz, Chris Leben and Chael Sonnen. Would you be interested in any of those names? Are those the type of fights you're looking to make?
CL: You know, on Yahoo! Sports, there is a Cung Le vs. Leben thread if there was a cross promotion. Like I said, if the fans think it is an exciting fight for them to watch, I'm all for it.
UPDATE: Chris Leben is now confirmed to be fighting Mark Munoz at UFC 138, so it looks like Cung Le will have to find another opponent.](http://cdn1.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/205493/CungLe_crop_340x234_small.jpg)
