Anthony Pettis undergoing surgery for two hand fractures after PFL playoff loss to Stevie Ray

Anthony Pettis is undergoing surgery to repair fractures in both hands following his fight against Stevie Ray at PFL Playoffs 1 this past Friday.

Pettis lost a unanimous decision to Ray, his second consecutive loss to ‘Braveheart’ after being submitted via second-round modified twister at PFL 5 in June. Not only did ‘Showtime’ miss out on advancing to the PFL lightweight finals, but he also sustained injuries to his hands that could leave him sidelined for a while.

The former WEC and UFC lightweight champion previously shared on social media that he broke both hands.
