Om ni såg Phil Davis under UFC 123 i sitt möte med Tim Boetsch, så kunde man se blod komma från något underligt ställe. Senare i en intervju med Ariel Helwani så visade han sitt sår på smalbenet som då inte kändes som en big deal. Nu i efterhand var det lite mer än bara ett litet sår, det krävdes nämligen 36 stygn för att lösa.
It didn’t hurt at all. You walk off the stage, and the doctor’s like, ‘does anything hurt?’ I’m like, ‘no bro, I feel awesome, I just won.’ Then you go into the back and the doctors ask again like, ‘is anything hurt?’ They sit you down; they’re checking you out. I missed it, the UFC doctors missed it, and we saw a little blood trickling, but neither I nor the doctor had any idea it was as bad as it was. Thank God I didn’t go home like that. Knowing me being me, I wouldn’t have gotten medical attention right away and I would have gangrene and I’d probably lose my foot or something.
