Stephen Thompson provides update on nasty leg injury from UFC Nashville

UFC veteran Stephen Thompson has provided an update on the nasty leg injury that he suffered at UFC Nashville.

Last Saturday night, Stephen Thompson battled it out with Gabriel Bonfim in the co-main event of UFC Nashville. While many felt as if he should’ve been awarded the victory, that wasn’t the case – and he was instead handed a defeat via split decision.

In addition to that, Stephen Thompson also suffered a shin gash that went straight to the bone. It was a real cause for concern during the fight and afterwards, a lot of fans and pundits were asking how he was healing.
