Ex-UFC champ shatters nose in training, elects against corrective surgery
""What a good day, and what a stupid accident...again. Five years after [my previous nose break], my nose is f---ed up even worse [laughs]. As you see, it's even more cracked the same direction, and when I touch [my nose], my bones are broken inside.""
""I'm gonna do x-ray now, I'm sure UFC will help me with that, even [if] I don't have a fight coming up. I'm gonna try the surgery to fix this nose, and let's see how it goes.""
Merab Dvalishvili, a former UFC titleholder, has suffered another severe injury to his nose during a sparring session. He shared a video detailing the damage, stating that his nose is more broken than before and that he struggles to breathe on one side. Dvalishvili plans to undergo surgery to fix the injury, which he attributes to a knee strike during training. He also shared x-ray images showing the extent of the damage, which the attending physician noted was reminiscent of previous injuries.
