Media The worst leg break in history of MMA (not for painted heart)

he need some milk

This is a joke, right?

Im not sure why is the lower leg the ones taking forever to heal as far as MMA guys go, years ago one of my kids fell off his crib around 1.5 years old and somehow he broke his femur, he didnt got surgery just a few months with a huge cast on him, granted he was just a kid and not a pro athlete, probably the bone is easier to heal? Its supposed to be super strong, Every other fracture seems to take just a few months but the lower leg ones take 1+ years.

I’m glad you’re doing fine nowadays bud. I’m sure there’s a bunch of examples from people where the recovery didn’t turn out that way.
I can imagine the hardest part of your recovery was to get back the confidence in both your legs, breaking them in half is no joke.

About 4 years ago I dislocated my knee in sparring, and I remember the first few trainings after recovering it was a bit scary to move around the way I used to, and to fully trust my knee again.

Here we see a 19-years-old @BoxerMaurits back in training for the first time after suffering a dislocated knee in sparring, with a knee-band for extra safety



I experienced that same “fear” about a year later when I trained for the first time without a knee-band, and it disappeared after like 4-5 training sessions.
Can’t imagine what it would’ve taken for you to get back some confidence in your body

Yeah man, regaining the confidence to put trust in your own body plays a big factor with recovery. Sometimes I would always err on the side of safety and just avoid doing anything that could potentially lead to another broken bone or injury.

“The femur is your thigh bone. It's the longest, heaviest and strongest bone in your body. It takes tremendous force to break your femur. It's a critical part of your ability to stand and move.”

that boy needed to drink some milk. Soy bones

I broke my femur in a motorcycle accident in 2010, it actually didn't take a ton of time to get back in the gym, but ended up returning to training too soon after and tore my patellar tendon in my other leg which took YEARS to recover from. Finally made my amateur MMA debut in 2020 at the young age of 37, to this day if I get kicked in my right leg it's extremely painful but thankfully I fight orthodox so that rarely happens

Not gonna watch.

Incredibly fucking sucks to have an injury of that magnitude happen to a kid that's still fresh into life.

 

[eddi]

Hell no unless he's really rich and lucky

 

[Elvis.]

Can’t they have some type of serious drugs on hand to sedate the poor bastard

 

[Istryker]

Damn, that pic looks painful

I'm one of those people who will never watch something like this.

 

[Reaperman]

Does he even want to come back from this. I would think that type of injury would mess with your head. He looks young though, and can prolly recover if he has the desire….

47-47

 

[NGute87]

What about the Russian guy who didn't tap and had his leg folded in half, but wins by rear naked choke!?????

 

[joey gerbils]

Holy shit that is the worst
