MMA Junkie reports that an injury to Croatian fighter Goran Reljic will keep him out of this UFC 90 matchup with Thales Leites:

A back injury has sidelined UFC middleweight Goran Reljic (8-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) and forced him out of a UFC 90 fight with Thales Leites (13-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC).

The fight has not yet been scratched from the event’s official fight card, though Reljic’s camp alerted MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) of the injury overnight.

The bout had been scheduled for the televised pay-per-view main card of UFC 90, which takes place Oct. 25 at Allstate Arena near Chicago.
