Fedor Emelianenko suffered a broken nose and injured his left hand during his heavyweight bout with Brett Rogers Saturday at Strikeforce/M-1 Global "Fedor vs. Rogers," Sherdog.com has learned from a source close to the fighter's camp.

...

After attending a post-fight press conference, Emelianenko was sent to local hospital. He returned later the same evening with his left arm in a soft cast nearly up to his elbow.

His nose has been messed up since Cro-cop broke it in Pride, and he's always had hand and thumb problems because of the way he throws his punches (I think he even has screws in one of his hands as well).

From MMA Weekly:


Fedor Emelianenko did not sustain a broken nose in his Saturday fight with Brett Rogers, according to a member of his camp.

Emelianenko took a hard jab to the nose in the opening exchange of the fight, causing it to bleed generously throughout the fight.

Emelianenko stopped Rogers cold in the second round with a right hand, racking up his 31st professional victory.

Steven Bash, Emelianenko's translator and American representative, said Sunday that the jab caused a deep cut to his nose, but did not damage it in any other way.

Bash confirmed that Emelianenko injured his left hand and may have dislocated his thumb requiring it to be popped back into place. The Russian heavyweight was later outfitted with a soft cast at a Chicago area hospital.

Bash said Emelianenko would visit a Chicago-area doctor Monday to check on his injuries.

Are there any updates on this? Did Fedor end up breaking his hand or did he just injure it?
