Interview

Quick read

Chris Weidman, Dustin Poirier, and Jorge Masvidal shared candid details about the surgeries and injuries sustained over their careers. Weidman explained that the titanium rod inserted into his leg after his fracture prevents another open break, while also noting he has metal in his hands that causes him pain when striking. Poirier revealed he has had two nasal surgeries and carries a cartilage graft from another person's rib in his nose, adding that he declined a third nasal operation in order to fight Max Holloway — fearing that a fourth procedure could compromise blood supply and cost him his nose entirely.
