Merab Dvalishvili shatters nose in training | MMA News
Former UFC bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili suffered a damaged nose in a number of locations while training. “The Machine” posted a video on social media displaying the injury and imagery of the injury.
“Just another typical day in my life,” he captioned the social media post. “What a good day and what a stupid accident,” Dvalishvili said in the video.
“12 years after, my nose is f*cked up even worse. As you see, it’s more cracked in the same direction.”
Dvalishvili revealed that he broke his nose in two locations. The imagery from the injury confirmed the injury of a life of combating. Despite the badly damaged nose, Dvalishvili intends to take on former two-division UFC champion and Olympic gold medalist Henry Cejudo in the RAF 8 main event on April 18 in Philadelphia.
“I did my x-ray and the x-ray shows that my nose is broken at two places,” Dvalishvilil said. “I just saw (the) doctor, nose surgeon and he said he will fix my nose and again make straight. He has to break other bones too. And it will take one more year to heal up. Of course, I don’t want to do that. Otherwise, he says, keep it that way and you can do surgery after your retirement. I said, I’m not going to retirement in the next 20 years, so I guess I’m going to keep my nose even more cracked than it used to be before and I’m going to deal with it. And I’m still going to compete at wrestling tournament against Henry Cejudo at RAF. That’s it.”
