After undergoing back surgery earlier this year, Cain Velasquez has posted an update regarding his injury and who he hopes to fight next.

Velasquez was scheduled to rematch Fabricio Werdum at UFC 207 in December, but the Nevada Commission didn’t clear him to fight, as a result of his back injury.

UFC 211 will take place on May 13th in Dallas. The card will feature heavyweight champ Stipe Miocic taking on Junior dos Santos. It was also supposed to feature Werdum versus Ben Rothwell, but recently the latter was informed of a potential anti-doping violation.
