On today's episode of "The MMA Show", Lawal's manager Mike Kogan confirmed that the light heavyweight contender had surgery on his left knee, due to an injury sustained while helping Lyoto Machida prepare for his UFC title bout with Jon Jones. The injury is similar to an injury that Mo had previously suffered in an August 2010 bout with Rafael ‘Feijao’ Cavalcante, an injury that had kept him out of the cage for over a year.
“We had some knee problems going into the fight (against Larkin). He had a torn ACL and his knee swelled up three or four weeks before the fight and we had to have it systematically drained,†Kogan said. "He is in surgery right now having his ACL put in"
At this time there is no timetable for Mo's recovery, and we here at PWInsiderXTRA wish Lawal the best in his recovery.
