Let the record show that Ultimate Fighting Championship up-and-comer Jean Silva is tough beyond words.

On Thursday, days after a three-round thriller against Drew Dober at UFC on ESPN 59, Silva shared on Instagram X-ray images of his hands. While Silva ended up finishing Dober due to a doctor stoppage technical knockout due to elbows slashing open a massive cut on Dober’s eyebrow, Dober was not the only one with a souvenir. Silva revealed that he broke both hands in the first round of their “Fight of the Night”-winning encounter.
