UFC flyweight champ Alexa Grasso undergoes hand surgery, eyes trilogy title bout
UFC women’s flyweight champion Alexa Grasso will be sitting on the sidelines for some time as she rehabs a surgically repaired hand.
Grasso, who defeated former champion Valentina Shevchenko in a controversial rematch decision at Noche UFC several weeks ago, said that she did not realize the injury was that bad until she returned to training after the fight.
She added that she will be ready for a trilogy after fans and UFC CEO Dana White suggested the ladies meet a third time.
“What are the odds huh? 🤭
En la pelea me fracture la mano; estamos acostumbrados a no dejar que el dolor nos frene en nada y aunque me dolía no pensé que fuera grave hasta que quise regresar a entrenar y me di cuenta que mi mano seguía muuuy mal.
La cirugía fue un éxito muchas muchas Gracias Doctor Arroyo y Doctor Zarate 🙏🏼 son unos ángeles!
Confío plenamente mi salud en sus manos @sportmedmx y se que voy a estar MEGA lista para esa trilogía 👹 #ANDSTILL”
Translated it means, “What are the odds huh? 🤭
In the fight I fractured my hand; we are used to not letting the pain stop us in anything and although it hurt I didn’t think it was serious until I wanted to go back to training and I realized my hand was still very bad.
The surgery was a success thank you very much Doctor Arroyo and Doctor Zarate 🙏🏼 you are angels!
I fully trust my health in your hands #ANDSTILL and I know I will be MEGA ready for that trilogy 👹 @sportmedmx”
