Former Russian Bellator welterweight champion Andrei Koreshkov said that it is difficult to talk about the prospects of a compatriot Petra Jana in the UFC, since his next fight won’t take place anytime soon.
Yang, 31, fought his last fight on March 9 at the UFC 299 tournament, defeating China’s Song Yadong by decision. The Russian then underwent surgery for a torn meniscus and anterior cruciate ligament in his knee.
—The battle of Pierre was difficult. He won hard, got injured. He has a torn anterior cruciate ligament. He underwent surgery and has a very long recovery ahead of him. I think if we see him this year it will be interesting to see how he recovers from injury. Well done, he won and returned to the winning path, but it is difficult to talk about his prospects, because his next fight will not take place soon, ”Koreshkov said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
Earlier, the press service of the Archangel Michael club, , reported that Yan would return to the octagon no earlier than the fall. In total, the Russian has 17 victories and 5 defeats in mixed martial arts.
