This midget has gone mad, risking his health just to fight in his home country.


Besides I didn't think midgets had spines holding em up.

Big f'ing deal.

Tito fought with a cracked skull.

 

[Coconut Joe]

UFC or the commission has to pull him from the fight if true

 

[accolyte1022]

Somewhere, Khabib's knee lightly touches a chair leg, and he'll be out another 2 years.

The correct derogatory term is manlet.

Fractures spine and yet no health insurance from the UFC.

but this time it just wasn't going away so I went and saw a back specialist in America who did X-rays and an MRI and stuff. He said because I have nothing between my L5 and S1 discs, it's like vertebrate going on vertebrate, and over time I'd irritated it and got a small fracture in my spine.

"It sounds terrible, but what it is now is it's a lot about pain management, and I've just been taking some strong anti-inflammatories to get the inflammation of my discs. That all said, all it did was really hinder my training for a few weeks and fighting in Hamburg, don't get me wrong, I could've done it, but I wanted to be at my best for me, my fans and my opponent.

Pickett is fucking crazy

 

[TCE]

Yeah, I'm sure the medical staff overseeing the event will let him fight.

 

[Venom]

Seeing as Bantamweights regularly reach 5'8" cut the hyperbole!

 

[ClosetVitorFan]

I'm getting an operation on my L5-S1 disc. Getting artificial disc replacement. It's very very painful. I can only imagine what he's going through. I need to take 4 Norcos a day to be able to function

 

[kevo1295]

Really idiotic if true. Risking paralysis and ending his career.

 

[AronaBeatsJones]

Thank Christ for regulations if true.

He won't make it into the octagon now that it's disclosed.

 

[beefcake180]

Lol how does he plan on getting cleared

 

[mjmj]

It sounds worse than it is. I’ve had the same thing for years. I’ve KNOWN about it since around 2004, no telling how long I lived with it before that. It’s not the type of thing that’s going to cause paralysis, just discomfort and/or pain on occasion.
No reason he won't be cleared to fight.

 

[Dreaming Dead]

What a dumb fucking idea.
