Bobby Green wants to return to the octagon in December following his win at UFC Vegas 80
Bobby Green secured an emphatic 33-second finish against Grant Dawson this past weekend at UFC Vegas 80. Despite being the underdog going into the fight, Green secured his second straight finish inside the UFC octagon.
After the fight, Green sat down at the post-fight press conference to discuss a variety of things. While speaking about his future and how he intends to return in December if his hand isn't injured, Green said:
"I just got to go check out my hand a little bit. Start slamming a little hammer fist, ever since Tony, when I was smashing Tony's head, I kind of messed it up a little bit that one, and then I was kinda like, 'I'll get through it, I'll just get through it, I'll just tough it out.' I just keep toughing this stuff out but I'm like now, I felt it more when I started hammer fisting him [Grant Dawson]. I'm like, 'Oh jeez, maybe I fu*ked something up.' So, get an X-ray and then I'll know from there but if I'm good I wanna fight in December."
