Who'da thunk it? TUF 10 favorite Nelson not fighting this weekend?

Maybe this is the "humor" that makes Dana White love Roy Nelson so much. Or did Nelson really flop in the season ten "Ultimate Fighter" semifinals? Nelson posted the message on Facebook and Twitter.

TUF 10 closes with two episodes tonight on Spike. James McSweeney battles an unknown opponent. Is it Matt Mitrione or Kimbo Slice? In the other quarterfinal, Darrill Schoonover faces Marcus Jones. Nelson and Brendan Schaub are waiting in the semifinals which will be aired in hour two. It would be highly unusual for a semifinalist from TUF to be left off a Finale card, but maybe Nelson irked White so much during the season and in the aftermath that he told "Big Country" to stay in his garage.
