Quick read

Chris Weidman, Dustin Poirier, and Jorge Masvidal shared candid details about the surgeries and metal hardware each carries from years of competing. Weidman described the titanium rod placed in his leg after his devastating fracture, noting it does not give him any advantage when throwing kicks. Poirier revealed he has a septal graft made from another person's rib cartilage in his nose, and said he declined a third nasal surgery so he could fight Max Holloway, fearing that a fourth operation could cost him his nose entirely.
