he broke his leg in the fight wouldn’t the ufc cover his medical bills for that?

That was the reason for KALIB STARNES fighting the way he did. he stated in a interview that the ufc doesnt take care of the injuries that are sustained in the octagon.

I asked that exact question to a fighter once and he said that they are covered before and after the fight. I think its still a good fund becuase ole Corey is out of work for alittle while now.

If the UFC isn’t covering his medical bills, then UFC fighters really are getting the shaft! I really hope that’s a misunderstanding because that’s an outrage otherwise.

Assuming UFC is paying medical bills (and all deductibles!), the fund that Gracie has set up is questionable. I’m sure Corey Hill and his family could use the help – these days, who couldn’t – but it smells like capitalizing on the sympathy of a grizzly injury and I wonder where that money is going.

That wolff guy should never be allowed to fight again. He got the living cr@p kicked out of him and just based on that solo fight alone should not be allowed in a cage under the UFC banner. That was pure embarrasment. He got kicked in the nuts, and then got the living hell kneed out of his face and body. He should def reconsider his career. I understand loosing, but loosing like that is just nuts. Rich Franklin was the closest thing to getting beat down like that, but he at least landed some shots and took the knees a little differently. This guy just covered up and took a beating.

Is the donate link working for anyone else? I wanna hook a brother up.

Yeah injuries in this sport will be scrutinized for the time being because of the reputation of the sport. There is a risk of serious injury in any sport, but the media needs a whipping boy to draw viewers in. Imagine what coverage would be like if, God forbid, someone where to die from injuries occuring in a UFC fight. Hopefully that never happens, but it’s a possibility.

It was a nasty night for sure. The thing is that Hills injury was a freak, maybe there is something wrong with him to begin with. Razaak shouldve tapped, guys that dont tap get broken plain and simple its talked about all the time. I personally would rather see a guy get his arm broke than a nasty KO like Yoshida. When you see guys stiff on the ground with there eyes rolling back in there head, it never looks good for anyone and cant be good for the guy laying on the ground. I am a huge MMA fan and have been for 13 years and still dont like seeing guys get knocked unconcious. Being Knocked Out is a tramatic injury to the brain at the time of impact hence the KO. I love MMA but understand why people dont.

get well fund to help him with his medical bills?.. i understand but the UFC should give him enough money to cover his medical bills

I think it would all depend on the way UFC handled it. If they played their cards right, it could deplete some of the rumors that UFC brass are ass holes and dont care about fighters. I think they’d be delicate in the matter.

Ok ok I’m here.. sorry I’m late, Damn weather kept me from getting to work this morning and we all know no one posts from home. I think that if they aren’t covered by appropriate insurance they will be after this because this is a huge red slash on the UFC. Alot of people noticed how bad this fight was and even Dana thinks the carnage was wicked. It won’t go away if they don’t take care of their fighters.

The “Get Well Fund” link doesn’t seem to be working properly…

I train under Fedor everyday and I have insurance that covers me and my numerous debilitating injuries.

So wut was the reason for that wicked leg break? Was is cus coreys 6 4 n doesn’t have much muscle mass around his leg to protect the bone or was it jus thrown w so much power? I couldn’t watch it cus I was in miami n the tv had like 10 channels

anyone else think the yamizaki shouldve stopped the fight before Razak Al-Hussan’s arm was snapped? or that the ref shouldve at least seen the grizzly leg break? didnt rogan stop that fight!
