Former UFC interim lightweight champion Dustin Porier said he may have injured his cruciate ligament in his knee in his fight with Islam Makhachev.
"I may have injured the cruciate when I hit the net in the third or fourth round before going on the attack. I don't remember exactly in which round it was. I felt a burning sensation in my knee, but I can't say for sure, I'll check it in the clinic anyway. In the fight itself, I had no problem getting on the chair and get up from it during the breaks between rounds," - quotes the American Middle Easy.
Recall, June 1 in the main event of UFC 302 in Newark, USA, Puryear lost to Makhachev by choke in the fifth round.
