Quick read

Chris Weidman, Dustin Poirier, and Jorge Masvidal shared details of the injuries they have accumulated across their careers. Weidman explained that a titanium rod inserted into his leg after his leg break prevents a recurrence of an open fracture, while also noting he has metal in his hands that causes him pain when striking. Poirier described the painful experience of having a pin inserted and later removed from a broken hand, and revealed he has a rib-cartilage implant in his nose after two surgeries, adding that he declined a third nasal operation in order to stay available to fight Max Holloway.
