Tom Breese ‘Out of the Game For a While;’ Reveals ACL, Meniscus Injuries on Instagram

Don't expect to see Tom Breese in the Octagon any time soon.

In an Instagram post made on Monday, the Ultimate Fighting Championship middleweight revealed that he had torn the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus in his right knee and that he would be “out of the game for a while.”

The 25-year-old Birmingham, England native has battled similar injuries throughout his young career. Following his December 2012 victory over Warren Kee, Breese spent nearly two full years on the shelf due to knee injuries.
