Veteran lightweight Evan Dunham (14-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC) has been forced to withdraw from next week’s TUF Nations Finale event, and UFC officials are now looking for a new opponent for Mark Bocek (11-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC). MMAjunkie today learned of the injury withdrawal from sources close to the event who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss such details in public. TUF Nations Finale takes place April 16 at Colisee Pepsi in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. The night’s main card airs on FOX Sports 1 following prelims on UFC Fight Pass. Dunham, once of the UFC’s most promising lightweight prospects, would have found himself in a liekly must-win situation following back-to-back losses and three defeats in is past four fights. Following a split-decision win over Gleison Tibau in early 2013, the 32-year-old has since suffered defeats to Rafael dos Anjos and Donald Cerrone.
