James Te Huna found victory in his UFC debut, but he also paid a price for his UFC 110 triumph, breaking a bone in his arm that will likely keep him out of action for several weeks.
The local Australian press reported a possible arm injury in the days after the event, and MMA Fighting was able to confirm that he suffered a broken arm.
In the UFC 110 opener at Sydney’s Acer Arena, Te Huna engaged in an action-packed bout with Croatian Igor Pokrajac that finished in a TKO victory.
The light-heavyweight reportedly injured his arm in the second round, possibly while attempting to block a Pokrajac kick. Despite the injury, which he was apparently unaware of at the time, Te Huna continued on and finished Pokrajac with strikes at 3:26 of the last round.
