In the UFC Vegas 62 co-main event, longtime MMA veteran Cub Swanson (28-13) fell short in a second-round TKO loss to Jonathan Martinez by way of leg kicks. The opening act was also pretty rough for Cub. On top of getting dropped by a knee, Swanson just disclosed on social media that he also suffered a rib injury in the first round.
Swanson had this to say about it, “My knee is fine, it’s just a bone bruise. What was really bothering me, was somehow in this sequence in the first round I tore some cartilage and fractured a rib.
