After an epic showdown Saturday night against Henry Cejudo at UFC 277, Demetrious Johnson revealed he suffered multiple injuries in route to his unanimous decision loss.
Joining the media post-fight in the Chick Hearn press room, BSO was on hand when Mighty Mouse broke down a number of serious injuries he sustained at the hands of Cejudo which included broken foot and a torn LCL (Lateral Collateral Ligament).
Losing happens, I’m more upset about the injuries but other than that I’m ok. I tore my right LCL and then my right foot might be broken.
I came into the fight 100% healthy, but when you kick over and over and over shit hurts.
As for future plans, Johnson says he’s game for a rematch but will need to spend some time getting healthy first. Cejudo, who appeared at the dais before Johnson, also expressed an interest in a trilogy-completing, third fight with Johnson.
