Quick read

Chris Weidman, Dustin Poirier, and Jorge Masvidal discussed the serious injuries they've sustained throughout their careers. Weidman detailed having a titanium rod inserted in his leg following his infamous broken-leg injury, noting it offers no competitive advantage and can still cause pain when striking. Poirier revealed he has a septal cartilage graft from a donor rib in his nose and chose to skip a third nasal surgery so he could fight Max Holloway, with doctors warning that a fourth surgery could cut off blood supply and cost him his nose entirely.
