John Hutchison, the coach of UFC bantamweight champion Petr Yan, reported that his fighter entered the championship fight with Jose Aldo with serious injury. Two weeks before the fight, Peter broke his leg.
“Two and a half weeks before the fight, Petr suffered a leg fracture while kicking. And Aldo, if you remember, once hit him in the injured leg. The fact that Petr has endured this makes him a true sports legend. In the evening before the fight, we did tests, and the doctors said that it was dangerous to go into battle. Imagine what it is like for Petr to go out to a duel, knowing that he has a weak point. It is very difficult to ignore this,” the coach said.
