Quick read
Chris Weidman, Dustin Poirier, and Jorge Masvidal shared candid accounts of the surgical procedures they have undergone throughout their careers. Weidman detailed having a titanium rod inserted into his leg after his leg break, noting the metal offers no striking advantage and actually causes pain to the fighter throwing the kick. Poirier described having a pin removed from a broken hand after six to eight weeks and revealed his nose now contains a septum made from another person's rib, explaining he declined a third nose surgery before fighting Max Holloway because doctors warned that a fourth operation could cut off blood supply entirely.
