Former Interim UFC Lightweight Champion Dustin Poirier underwent surgery on his leg. A few days ago, the fighter was hospitalized with a staphylococcal infection.
Jolie Poirier, Dustin's wife, announced this on her social networks:
“The operation went well, as expected. Now about recovery."
Later, Dustin himself commented on the operation, not missing the opportunity to address potential opponents:
“Now we need to get back to normal! Anyone who talks shit and kicks me when I fall, know this is a cowardly move. I'll deal with everyone. Diamond".
Recall that Poirier's last fight was on November 12 at UFC 281, knocking out Michael Chandler.
