After the Co-Main event of UFC Hamburg took a hit last week, it has taken yet another hit as welterweight contender Alan Jouban has pulled out of his scheduled fight against Danny Roberts at UFC Hamburg after suffering from a neck injury. Jouban (16-6) last fought at UFC on Fox 28 in February when he defeated Ben Saunders by second round KO. “Brahma” had dropped consecutive defeats for the first time in his MMA career before that win, being finished by Niko Price and Gunnar Nelson.
