Ulberg undergoes surgery within week of injury rules out minor injuries. No official announcement yet but… valgus load and an appearance on video of knee/leg snapping or shifting after planting on it is a common textbook mechanism for ACL tear. The valgus moment can also stress the menisci and MCL so a combined injury is also likely. For him to undergo surgery immediately is telling…
I’d expect a 9mo+ return to the UFC. Many notable fighters have returned after ACLR surgery 👇
- Conner McGregor 9 months 2013
- Dominick Cruz multiple ACL injuries
- Kennedy Nzechukwu tear in 2019 and return in 2021
- Georges St. Pierre right knee 2011 and left knee 2014
Get well soon champ @UlbergCarlos
