The real “worse” shoulder injury is Johnny Walker blowing out his shoulder doing the worm after a victory and derailing every ounce of momentum he was gaining

[@Diesel11769]

That why i wince whenever I see Justin backflip off the cage

Jiri probably healed so quickly because he drank CTRL meal replacement shakes. The old Jiri would skip meals and order takeout when busy, but the new Jiri turns to healthier food options because he still struggles in the kitchen, that's why he chooses CTRL meal replacement shakes

Worst shoulder injury yet I haven’t heard a single person go into anymore detail that “shoulder” and “injury”. I’m not saying it wasn’t bad but it’s weird that I still don’t know what happened to his shoulder when I’ve been keeping up with this since the start of when it happened

He was training with a guy from Ankalev’s team, guy suplexes jiri, jiri shoulder pops out, someone tried a “gym fix” and it made the injury worse than if he went to the hospital immediately

[@michalbak4451]

Chael chael, i have to say one thing..... Jiri never said this is the worst injury in the history.. Dana said that and you surely know Dana .... he is promoter... Jiri said in czech language multiple times that his injury isnt so bad and the ufc doctors just think it was so terrible because his shoulder was already fucked up years earlier... he fought Glover with 4 shoulder muscles non functional... and a supposed that his injury was the last one on shoulder :D he also made some commentary with the doctor about his injury, but i understand it is out of your reach because of language barrier... You wasnt much of a fan earlier and now you are... you were one sided... dont make the same mistake twice big Uncle.... if you would be with Jiří one day... you would understand that any kind of roids etc isnt an option...

Joe Rogan has been saying it as well every time Jiri has been mentioned. Probably just parroting Dana.

Chael talking nonsense again. Nobody ever said Jiri is ready to fight in January, he literally got fight ready few days ago, thats why he went for his first full training camp to Thailand, also the worst shoulder injury in ufc history dana said due to the fact that Jiris shoulder was already damaged before the injury, he actually said hes quite happy about the injury because now his shoulder is finally fixed.

[@ciaagent8419]

Sometimes the worst injuries are the easiest to fix. Tony’s knee injury was horrific. Bruh acl and mcl ripped off the bone. He was back in the octagon faster than almost every other knee injury. As for Jiri, you can see his arthroscopy surgery scars. Two big holes right in the front of his front delt muscle

[@backbone93]

He was back faster becuz its tony and he did hours of therapy every day, he has insane recovery He is not a lazy person If the same injury happened to someone else they wouldve been out over a year

[@RealMattKiefer]

He was back faster cuz the UFC paid off USADA to stay away from Tony to enable him to megadose HGH. That’s how these situations work. The ones who are popped or popped for selective reason either due to grudge between them in UFC, and narrative, the UFC wants to push to move the weight class around based off numbers and draw and building new stars or if the fighter has an issue That will require them to step away for some time. My coach used to fight in the 155 division for the UFC. He went 3-3 before they cut him. This information comes from him directly. He also was using PED‘s while in his UFC run and one of his famous quotes. He likes to tell us is it’s not a drug test you’re beating. It’s an intelligence test. Knowing which drugs to use which esters clear the fastest, what over-the-counter supplements can aid in masking said drugs and coaches and trainers in the know the communicate between the gyms, letting each other know when to expect that USADA visit

[@VitBitterSweet]

You can write Jiří , respect.

[@thenortherndrummer969]

remember he was also the most tested athlete in the ufc. He for sure popped for something and had to vacate!

[@brochurst8318]

Yup. Been saying this from the jump

[@rcanashi]

I think UFC gives many chances to Jiri because if he becomes the champion again the MMA european market will increase a lot.

[@RealNewsMMA]

I still can’t help but think of all of those USADA tests and the fact that only in recent years would fighters get covered for by USADA in the eye of the public because of the damage testing positive on the public’s perception of the fighter. Very curious about the tests and if there were irregularities leading up to the vacating of the belt.

[@adamchirico7724]

Wtf is going on with that division!!!!??? Need a title fight lined up

[@Gaffer11173]

In your poll for better BMF matchup I gave you great praise. I stated that the question was a real stop and think question; and even after stopping and thinking, I couldn't give an honest answer. Although with this video, there's a beating around of the bush, can you answer the question; where does Connor McGregor stand in all this?

[@lunchbreak1792]

if that's true, that really sucks for Jamal who tried to match the 'honourable thing' and relinquish the belt for nothing

[@Antstrumentals]

Jamahal hill and Jiri both scared to fight each other 😅

[@jayn6943]

No medical diagnosis was publicly disclosed. And that is the tradition in MMA and Boxe. If he us on suspension then he'll comeback in Dec. Suspensions are either six months or a year.

[@zayffon1325]

Well they described the injury. He dislocated it during training and then one of Ankalaev’s teammates tried to pop it back in and ended up injuring it.

[@malcolmcampbell8787]

Too bad jiri don't know the ancient technique the Weslin Boulder Shoulder

[@marklower007]

Ur Ronda and Aldo analogy is so annoying. The ufc merged with the wec. Prior to this the ufc did not have woman's MMA and did not have 145 and 135 weight classes. At that time Ronda and Aldo were the champions of those divisions. It's not as if the ufc had a division prior to that. They merged with the ufc in weight classes the ufc did not have prior. It's not that hard to compute. The wec 145 weight class became the ufc 145 weight class. Simple as that.

no chance he faked the injury, and failing a test at the same time as a major injury is astronomically unlikely, since all the evidence we have is perfectly explained by the injury

Jiri vs Alex is going to interesting. Jiri is scary but unorthodox. He does get hit too much and the shoulder is concerning if true. You wonder if he can get back. Oh shoot some of that traditional medicine magic juice maybe? Costa on Ariel's show shirtless drinking magic juice was hilarious. Flexing. I think he's getting it. If he leans into that we might have him five or more years in the UFC. Can you imagine if he caught Khamzat and won? lol He'd be the new Conor only funnier. Hey, he's supposed to come up to 205. Be some crazy fights him and Jiri or Alex.

[@user-sf9yd2dq7h]

That’s why Leon edwards doesn’t have shoulder injuries

[@martinplichta9136]

Mr. Sonnen got too carried away with his thoughts and lost touch with reality. Dana White talked about the worst injury he'd ever seen. Mr. Sonnen doesn't understand that it wasn't a doctor's opinion but a businessman's statement to get George to give up the title belt. And USADA isn't a bunch of kids on a playground either. It's an organization with clear rules. So they certainly had a reason to test George so often, but that could mean a minor misconduct in cooperation. Avoidance or doping would have been punished by now.
