Themba Gorimbo needs a new opponent for his next UFC appearance, and made sure his originally scheduled foe knew what he was feeling before turning the page.
Gorimbo confirmed an initial report from MMA Mania that Kiefer Crosbie was forced to withdraw from their Feb. 3 bout at the APEX with an injury. “The Answer” posted the news to Twitter, also sharing screenshots of social media posts and conversations between he and Crosbie.

Gorimbo has made two octagon appearances since signing with the promotion, losing his debut to A.J. Fletcher via submission this past February before picking up his first UFC win with a unanimous decision victory against Takashi Sato three months later. The victory inspired actor Dwayne Johnson to gift Gorimbo a house in Miami.
