Transcript

So John Cavanaugh, who's Conor McGregor's coach, said that that's Laura. Laura Sanco is one of the UFC commentators and she did an excellent interview with Cavanaugh and they went over all the things that happened. And one of the things that happened in training camp was they think it probably cracked in training camp and he got it scanned. They said there might have been something there but it's hard to tell. It's probably some sort of a hairline fracture. And they did their best to just stay healthy until they can get into the fight. But if you go to Laura's interview, it's really excellent. And Cavanaugh explains that. And it looks like John Wayne Parr picked up something too. It looked like the shin was compromised on one of the leg kicks too. Not the one that Dustin thought. Dustin thought that it was probably damaged more than once. Because Dustin checked one of the kicks and then pointed to Conor's shin. I know that hurt you. But this one, this is from John Wayne Parr's page. He throws his kick. If you watch Conor's shin, see look, it kind of buckles right there. See that? Oh yeah. That ain't good. Now right after it buckles there, this is what John put up. Right afterwards, Conor then throws a front kick and that's it right there. And that front kick hits the knee. Now as it puts it down, his shin is shot now. Now he goes to throw a punch. He throws a punch and then as he steps back, he doesn't have it on his. If you go to mine, you'll see that. If you go to mine, go to my Instagram and you'll see I reposted it from Eric Nixik from Extreme Couture. So he throws this front kick and as he throws the front kick, it hits the elbow at the point. So he's throwing it up. See that? And bam. It catches it and then it goes down. Right now he's standing on that fractured. So he puts it behind him. Watch. He puts it behind him and then he throws the punch and then when he goes to throw the punch, he picks the foot off the ground. Right here's the left hand. That almost looked like it bent back. But watch this. It did bend back. But watch this. It gives out completely. See it folds over. So it snapped above the ankle. It wasn't actually the ankle. It was above the ankle. Here's what's really crazy. There's been so many fights in the UFC and to have all these breaks in a row, there's been Jacare Sosa got his arm broken, Chris Wideman got his leg broken. There's been a ton of breaks over and over and over again over the last- What's going on? Just people are getting good at breaking people's bones. It's really what it is. And the Chris Wideman was a freak accident. The craziest thing is Chris Wideman, there's only been, I think, one, two, three, four. There's been four leg breaks like that in the UFC in the history of the UFC. Chris Wideman's been involved in two of them. The odds are insane. Insane. Anderson Silva threw a kick. He checked it. Anderson broke his knee. He threw a kick. Uriah Hall checked it. Or Anderson broke his leg rather. He threw it. Uriah Hall checked it. He broke his leg. Crazy. That is crazy. The odds of these things happening in this number are nuts. That is crazy. Catch new episodes of The Joe Rogan Experience for free only on Spotify.
