Just a quick update for everyone.
Pitbull went into surgery this morning and everything went great!
First thing he asked after the surgery was when could he start training!
The doctors were amazing and were with him the entire time.
Our gratitude to Dr. Sherry Walkan from the New Jersey Boxing Commission and Dr. Borhan who did an amazing job. Dr. Borhan is actually a good friend of Marcelo Garcia and trains under him in NY, so it was a godsend that he was there to help out during this time.
Thanks to everyone for their support and good wishes. I have no doubt that you will see Thiago “Pibtull” Alves back in action soon enough!

Operating room spies tell TMZ Thiago Alves just underwent an 8 hour operation to separate an artery from a vein in his brain.
Dana White tells TMZ the operation — in a New York City hospital — was a complete success and Pitbull’s first words … “When can I start training again?”
Dana’s answer … a couple of weeks.
We’re told Pitbull will be in ICU for the next two days.
