Dominick Cruz Won’t Be Fighting For a While, You Guys

WEC champ Dominick Cruz underwent successful surgery yesterday to repair a broken hand he sustained in his WEC 53 title defense against Scott Jorgenson on December 16. The Dominator will likely be sidelined for at least three months before he can resume training, which pushes his first UFC 135-pound title defense back until the summer.

Cruz tweeted a handful of photos from the hospital, including the first one after the jump taken hours after having pins inserted to hold his mangled third metacarpal on his left hand together.

Be forewarned that it ain’t pretty.

(Cruz’s doctor clearly misunderstood when Dominick asked for the "human centipede.")

(Cruz doing his best Bruce Leroy.)

(Evidence in case he didn’t wake up from the discount surgery in Mexico.)

I'm pretty sure Cruz inherited his wardrobe from an 18th century deckhand on the SS Mcslikesguys.

Uht-Oh! Looks like Cruz put on a little weight. He should have a stairmaster by the bed.

Also, I watched Tito Ortz on the MMA Fight Science yesterday and enjoyed hearing him say "Ibulibium."

Pretty soon every weight class is going to have a champ and interim champ.
