Russian mixed martial arts fighter Denis Tyouline told that he would need elbow surgery after his fight with American Cedric Dumas at the UFC tournament in Abu Dhabi.
The middleweight bout took place on August 3 and ended with Dumas winning by unanimous decision.
— Now I am resting, recovering, taking care of my health. Now the main thing is to get checked, to establish all the processes with the body. I have to undergo an olecranon bursectomy. We need to open it and remove some fragments. The operation was talked about before the tournament, but I will not hide behind it. It did not bother me much, everything was fine, nothing painful. I felt good. I will come to operate.
— You have four losses in a row, is there a chance you stay in the UFC?
“I can’t say it yet: I don’t make the decision. If I stay, I will continue to fight in the UFC, no, I won’t. As I said before, a fighter is the smallest detail of a big organization. When I’m notified, I can tell you,” Tyululin told .
Tyulunin is 36 years old; during his MMA career he has won 10 matches and suffered 10 defeats.
