Windsor Township MMA pro Biff Walizer broke a toe on his left foot Thursday and is out of his May 17 Cage of Chaos fight, said his manager, Jerod Phillips.

Walizer injured the toe training near State College in preparation for his 150-pound fight with David Sachs at the event in St. Clairsville, Ohio. Phillips called Cage of Chaos promoter Dave Klick on Saturday to deliver the bad news.

"It's basically bad timing," Phillips said. "If the fight was in June, we'd be fine."

Phillips said Walizer's left foot "is all bruised up ... his toe's all purple."

Still, Phillips was confident that Walizer would make a quick recovery.

"He's going to be off for a couple weeks. We'll be back to Ground Control (MMA Academy in Baltimore) by the first week in June," he said. "If he's gonna fight, he's gonna be 100 percent ... We'll definitely be getting him in the cage ... end of June or July."
