Umar Nurmagomedov is on the road to recovery.
Following his loss to bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili in the co-main event of UFC 311 this past Saturday, Nurmagomedov mentioned in his post-fight interview that he believed he broke his hand in the opening round. Nurmagomedov’s manager Ali Abdelaziz later shared photos of the fighter’s injured hand.
The previously unbeaten Nurmagomedov underwent surgery to address the injury this week and he shared an X-ray image of his hand post-procedure via Instagram Stories on Thursday.
