An image published by Ross Pearson on his Twitter, on Monday morning (8), impressed his followers. In it, the fighter's left foot appears very swollen and with several purple spots. Despite the impact of the image, Pearson guaranteed that a medical examination did not find a fracture in the region.

“The doctor said not broken! What a crazy night,” he tweeted. “Still swollen, but the bruises are coming off now! Coming back for further exams this week,” he added.
