Dana White questions Frankie Edgar’s injury: ‘How do you break your orbital bone in training?’

[Wild]

Former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar was slated for his third shot at the featherweight title when he was scheduled to fight Max Holloway at UFC 218. Unfortunately, a cracked orbital bone sustained during sparring forced “The Answer” to pull out three weeks ago.

During a media scrum in Las Vegas on Tuesday, UFC president Dana White was made to wonder how such a severe injury could happen during training.

“My question for Frankie – and I haven’t talked to Frankie yet, Frankie is in Russia or something right now, I think – but how do you break your orbital in training? Unless it was a freak knee to the eye in wrestling or something like that,” White said (via…


Dana White questions Frankie Edgar’s injury: ‘How do you break your orbital bone in training?’

 

[Wild]

I didn't know Frankie broke his orbital. Brutal.

Dana if you ever trained, you fat bloated fuck, you would know how. Accidental knee to the head in a grappling scramble, a hard shot when boxing, inadvertent elbow when attacking a submission, ALL of these things are common when sparring/training.

Fuck Dana White.

 

[RaginCajun]

Dana needs to shut his cock gobbling mouth. He is being paid an ungodly amount and all he does is down talk the fighters. He only cares about keeping himself the top star.

“You know you’re going to sell by how many tickets you have left and how many days.”

Did someone just inform him thats a good indicator? Its such a no shit statement I am convinced someone just told him. Not even trying to Blaf bash here, just sincerely curious if he actually doesn’t know what he is saying.

This.

I've seen so many freak injuries in training and grappling competitions over the years I lost count long ago. For those wondering, when I say injuries at grappling competitions, I don't mean an injury caused by an applied joint lock I mean someone getting their arm broken in a scramble, and random shit like that.

I've seen guys roll their ankles right over by just slowly side stepping

The other day I tripped and fell dick first into this girls mouth. Shit is crazy out there

Had my ankles broke balling up not long ago.

Hey Dana I believe one breaks an orbital bone in practice when a pressure
is applied inward on the orbital bone surface area that is greater then the
structural strength of said surface area.

Egg gonna egg

Fuck the egg. Frankie is the last fighter whose heart should ever come into question. If he says he's injured you damn well know it's serious.

If you weren't a fat fuck boxercise instructor, you'd know...

Fuck Dana White.

No fat rich executive bashing please

Dana's right. It's not an injury you break in training unless you're a fucking idiot.

 

[CHiLLEN]

Dana's right. It's not an injury you break in training unless you're a fucking idiot.

Dana did make a good point. Wrestling, and could have caught a knee to the eye. It's a possibility. Even a clash of heads.. who knows. I'm interested in what explanation we will get from Frankie

 

[silentsinger]

Step into the octagon and fight once before running your mouth. I know he's prez and all but ffs his over inflated ego, gigantic head and belly are just going to hopefully clash in a gigantic pile of goo soon.

Frankly I'm bored of Frankie but shut your fucking mouth, mate.

The fuck you know about training, sunshine?

 

[The EZ Life]

Dana's right. It's not an injury you break in training unless you're a fucking idiot.

It’s not an injury he would give himself...... so idk how Frankie is “a fucking idiot.” it has to be someone he’s training withs fault or a complete accident like a knee in wrestling as others mentioned

Coming from a guy who has probably never trained a day in his life.
