Petr Yan to Undergo Surgery for Knee, Groin Injuries Suffered in UFC 299 Victory

The former UFC champion revealed on social media Monday that he will need to undergo surgery for a ruptured ACL, torn meniscus and groin injury suffered in his unanimous decision victory over Yadong Song on March 9 at the Kaseya Center in Miami. “No Mercy” is scheduled to go under the knife on Tuesday.

“Nothing will break me,” Yan wrote. “I’m determined to come back stronger than ever in no time.”

A timetable for Yan’s UFC return is currently unclear. The former Absolute Championship Berkut title holder shook off a slow start to rally for a unanimous verdict over Song to snap a three-fight losing streak in UFC competition.
