Kickboxing legend Gokhan Saki hopes to return to the Octagon in March or April following his recovery from a bucket handle meniscus tear.
The former K-1 and Glory champion had to remove himself from his UFC 219 bout with Khalil Rountree after an injury that first showed up in his Glory days reoccurred after his UFC debut.
Saki explained that he first suffered the knee injury back 2012, but after putting more stress on the knee for mixed martial arts, the injury flared up following his first-round knockout of Henrique da Silva at UFC Fight Night 117.
