UFC Fighter On Wrong End Of Bad Referee’s Performance Has Four Facial Fractures

UFC’s Gavin Tucker suffered a brutal loss to Rick Glenn at UFC 215 over the weekend. While the fight went the distance, many fight fans believed the fight could have been stopped on multiple occasions. Glenn put on a dominant performance, delivering a steady pace of punishment to his opponent.

Now, it would appear that Gavin Tucker suffered some damage to his face from the epic battle. The fighter recently took to Facebook to offer the following statement, in which Tucker revealed that his face has suffered four fractures.

“In victory say little. In defeat ….less. ill keep it short and sweet. i lost on Saturday. stop blaming the ref for a bad call. that man let me go out on my shield. he visited while i was in the hospital and apologized. was him and i in that cage.

“I didnt stop fighting. he saw that. he should sleep easy. I have four broken bones in my face. the first which started on the jaw in rd 1 and the fight went down for me from there. i have 2 fractured orbital and another vertical fracture in the jaw according to the x ray/CT scan.

“the heartbreak of losing hurts much worse. throughout the day i wiped alot of blood off my cheek and i can’t say for sure there weren’t some tears in there. I fought w blurred vision and 3 different Rick Glenns kicked the fuck out of me for the last two rds. (i tried to hit the one in the middle) congrats to my opponent.

“i hope you go far because i plan on seeing you again. I fought my heart out. I’m a rare breed of straight savage and i don’t need social media to tell me that. however…i am appreciative of all the support i received on here. which is why I’m writing this. I have no excuses and won’t stand for anyone making them for me.

“that’s not how the north folk get it done. I have a great Family. a great team. and the greatest women. ill be twice the man for this. thats it….. Tucker 2.0 is on the way”

In victory say little. In defeat ….less. ill keep it short and sweet. i lost on Saturday. stop blaming the ref…
