Maybe we can finally stop with the running jokes.

With Mark Coleman forced to bow out of a UFC 106 clash with Tito Ortiz
(15-6-1 MMA, 14-6-1 UFC) due to an injury suffered in training, Forrest
Griffin (16-6 MMA, 7-4 UFC) has stepped up to fill the vacant role.

Yahoo! Sports was the first to report the matchup, which will serve as
the co-feature of “UFC 106: Lesnar vs. Carwin” on Nov. 21 at Mandalay
Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. The UFC has since officially announced the contest.
