Kang Off Battlefield Card
There were rumours today that Battlefield Fight League was looking for a replacement for Denis Kang who was pulling out due to injury. The rumours were confirmed within the past hour when Kang poste the following statement on his Facebook wall:
After much consideration with my manager and coaches, I have to make the very hard decision to postpone my fight with Battlefield FL on march 26th. I can’t give a half-ass performance in a fight that means so much to me. I will recover properly and be back at full power for the next event May 28th.
Kang was scheduled to face Jesse Taylor at Battlefield Fight League 7 in 10 days time. Battlefield president Jay Golshani also confirmed the withdrawal with Top MMA News saying that Kang had an injured bicep and that they are actively looking for a replacement.
The Canadian is also scheduled to face Eun Soo Lee in Korea’s Road FC 2 card on April 16th. There is no word on whether his injury will force him to pull out of this event scheduled one month from now.

If you are not feeling 100% you don’t want to step in the ring with JT. I’m sure Jason Day would agree.
