"The former UFC flyweight champion posted a video of him working out at American Top Team a little less than a month after he suffered an elbow injury in a loss to Joshua Van at UFC 323. Van caught a kick from Pantoja, and the Brazlian appeared to dislocate his elbow when he posted his arm as he was shoved to the canvas. That resulted in the bout being halted just 26 seconds into Round 1."
""Thank you so much for all the support, we are making great progress every day," Pantoja wrote in Portuguese on Instagram (via Google Translate). "Victory is being built every day. And I have to be better than I was yesterday. I am my only opponent. Gratitude for everything!" Pantoja entered UFC 323 with an eight-fight winning streak that included four successful title defenses. ATT coach Marcos "Parrumpa" da Matta recently revealed that Pantoja didn't suffer any fractures or tear any ligaments. Pantoja's overall recovery is expected to take four to six months."
