I sat next to Jens Pulver for this one. All of the fights were fun on this card. Rory is a strange dude and there was definitely a weird vibe in the audience when he entered.

Yeah, we've actually trained together for a bit and his story is a really interesting one. We grew up about 10 miles apart from each other. He's a really good dude and I know the struggle these guys go through. When you have the power to fucking annihilate anyone physically, sometimes it's hard to keep yourself together mentally.Nice. You talk to him at all? Pulver always comes off as one of the nicest, most humble people in the sport. Wonder what MMO he is playing these days, if any at all. I remember him saying that his WoW addiction was impacting his training and he had to give it up.
I liked his documentary, Driven. It's up for instant streaming on Netflix if anyone is interested.

Did you have plates and pins removed eventually? The break isn't itself that bad, the elbow isn't shattered into tiny fragments. But just looking at the xray makes me cringe when I think about getting armbared or hit into that area.I had a pretty bad elbow break when I was younger, surgery, plate and pins. I ended up having to do physical therapy for a few months but there was no permanent damage.
I am sure it is different for all injuries, and I am not doctor, but this is my understanding. Once it is completely healed, you don'thaveto keep the plate and screws in. If you are insistent on wanting them out, the doctor can indeed remove them. However, that is yet another surgery and more recovery time.So I got my elbow broken by a roundkick. After the operation there's a metal plate and quite a few screws holding it together, which won't be taken out once the elbow is healed, according to the doctor. Does anyone have, or know someone who has, experience with a similar injury? How fucked am I, long term/permanent damage-wise?
