News Islam Makhachev reveals hand injury, might be out for the rest of 2024.

[Rorschachxx]

• MRI reveals ligament tear in his hand after the Poirier fight
• Isn't healing as expected - might require surgery
• Fight in Abu Dhabi in October is questionable
• Wants to fight at least one more time in 2024 but injuries have accumulated so he needs to to heal up and get in fighting shape

Fuckkkkk

 

[TerraRayzing]

Sherdog loses its shit and demands him to be stripped in 3...2....1

 

[flektarn]

It will be healed and ready to go as soon as Arman is booked for a fight.

Imagine thinking that Islam is scared of Arman and Imagine posting that on Sherdog...

Hopefully this leads to him NOT fighting Arman. I truly don't understand nor WANT that fight.
Hope he heals up completely.

 

[The Siege]

Dang, tough luck. Hopefully, he heals up in time to fight Arman in the Fall. I wouldn't mind it if they Comain them at MSG under Jon.

Queue in Belal vs Shavkat for Abu Dhabi

 

[akeller901]

Alex vs Ank in Abu Dhabi
Belal vs Shavkat co main

 

[Corrado Soprano]

Dustin Poirier should be crowned new welterweight champion.

Having Alex main event Abu Dubai against Ank and Belal vs Shavkat as co main and Islam vs Arman co maining MSG is best case scenario for us fans

JG better go ahead and sign to fight, he could be number 1 contender by the time Islam is back!

Yeah, that's sounds good if they are able to pull it off. I am not sure if they would do Ank vs Alex in UAE tho, they don't want to reward Ank with a "hometown" title fight. I can see them having Alex move up and fight Aspinal before they give Ank a TS.

 

[Mammothman]

Dustin vs Arman for the interim in the meantime.

 

[Krixes]

That sucks as he's been a pretty active fighter.

 

[ElLunico]

Isn't Arman suspended for 6 months??? Perfect timing lol

Belal is gonna comedown and steal Islam's shine while he is out on injury hiatus

 

[Unheralded Truth]

The fact that he says "haven’t talked about the fight yet, I am doing rehabilitation every day now" and then follows it up with wanting to be "in shape, prepared, so that nothing bothers me... I want to give my body time to recover" tells me that he won't headline 308. The UFC are probably already trying to get something else done.
