Jack Della Maddalena won’t stay out of the Octagon for too long.
The UFC Welterweight contender faced a ton of adversity surrounding his latest fight at UFC 299. From breaking his left arm in the first round to being two rounds down against Gilbert Burns, Della Maddalena dug deep for a third-round TKO win to take Burns’ place in the top five of the division.
Following the biggest win of his career, Della Maddalena says he actually dealt with a staph infection prior to beating Burns.
With all that said, the sidelined Australian expects his return to be sooner rather than later, perhaps like we predicted a few days ago.
