Joe Rogan - Jorge Masvidal's Worst Injuries
The worst injury discussed in the podcast was an eye poke during a wrestling move, resulting in immediate vomiting and uncontrollable shaking. The injury required wearing an eye patch for five weeks due to double vision. Initially scheduled for surgery, the healing progressed well enough to avoid it. Other notable injuries included hand ligament and tendon tears, and meniscus issues, which were managed through rehabilitation and stem cell treatments. These treatments, especially for the knees and hands, significantly improved mobility and reduced pain. Stem cell therapy was obtained in California and Colombia, providing substantial recovery and overall body healing benefits.
Jorge Masvidal: "I gave a brain injury to Colby Covington."
I currently got three felonies because this Kobe says I gave him a brain injury. So how is he gonna fight for any type? That's what I want to know. How could you... the UFC's gonna get sued if that guy goes in there and something like that happens, right? Because supposedly, allegedly, because I didn't do... he says I gave him a brain injury. I didn't do though.
