I've had staph twice,

thankfully minor infections that I caught before they were too much trouble. The first time I got staph it was going around the gym I was at and probibly got it from the mats. The second time was from wrestling and likely skin to skin contact with someone who had it.

It's a bacteria that is spread from skin to skin contact and it get's into any skin abrasions.......

and then thee above happens. Basically any time you get done rolling take a shower, if you lift wieghts, wipe off the machines with some anit – bacterial shit. You don’t want staph, it’s fucking nasty…………………

Oh, yes, Meg, yes-yes yes, everything was going swimmingly for you until this. Yes, yes, THIS is the thing that will ruin your reputation, not your years of grotesque appearance, or your awkward social graces, or that Felix Ungerish way you clear your sinuses, no no no, it's THIS. Do you hear yourself talk? I might kill you tonight.

Better yet...

how long does it take to get rid of it?

the nastiest ones come from hospitals

you get one of those and you could end up having to have major chunks of flesh cut away, as they are extremely resistant to anti-biotics. (due to doctor’s irresponsible overuse of general antibiotics)

head

Perhaps that is why KenFlo’s head is so big, it’s full of Staph Puss.

Hilarious!

That backflipping idiot is hilarious. A few more feet and he’d have gotten a proctology exam from that trophy.

Before I opened it I was just praying that wasn’t his shoulder from the front on the first pic. Still gross. Wonder how painful that is.

Dam that shits nasty!

Who do guys think is guna be the 1st one 2 get a crack a Edgar? I saw the legend from ufc 3 at the bar I went 2 on sat. Kimo =D he’s still a big dude.

by d*locc on Apr 12, 2010 6:43 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

Damn...

I hope this doesn’t stop Kenny from getting first crack at Penn’s belt.

I think that may be the only way he gets the belt and I would love for the guy to be able to say that he was champ, even if he loses the rematch to Penn.

by StrikerDave on Apr 12, 2010 7:01 PM EDT reply actions  

I agree.

I believe I said the same thing yesterday. Kenny deserves to be able to hold the belt for a couple months.

I am also hoping...

I am also hoping this sets up a Clay Guida/ BJ Penn fight. The way Guida keeps dropping the #1 contender fights I suspect this is the only way we will see Penn vs. Guida.

I saw Kenny's knee swollen during the Gomi fight

I just assumed he took a kick there. So he actually had staph during the fight. I would think he wouldn’t have cleared a medical screen prior to the fight but maybe they allow you to fight with it??

by sudnvictory on Apr 12, 2010 9:58 PM EDT reply actions  

they let Nog fight Mir with it

but I doubt they will if its this bad, was it like this during the Gomi fight?

by JDub84 on Apr 13, 2010 3:29 AM EDT up reply actions  

Not as bad as these pics

 But pretty noticeable nonetheless.

Yeah that’s true about Nog but I think he was being treated for it prior to their bout. Bet the antibiotics are what zapped his energy. Maybe Kenny opted to wait until after the bout to have it treated for that reason…..speculation of course on my part.
