He had a serious shoulder injury, a torn rotator. It had nothing to do with Byrd.
Tua lost to Byrd, while Wlad beat Byrd twice, coming close to stopping him the first time, and stopping him in the second fight.
But I give Tua full credit for an excellent performance and I'm glad to have him active, since he makes the division more interesting.
