Roy Nelson Shares X-Ray of His Badly Broken Hand Following Loss to Josh Barnett
Roy Nelson was in an absolute brawl against former UFC heavyweight champion Josh Barnett on Saturday night. It should not come as too much of a surprise, then, that he is a bit worse for the wearโespecially in the right hand region.
Check out this photo he posted on his Facebook page:

Now I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty sure thumbs aren't supposed to look like that.
Nelson, of course, was quite active Saturday night. Main-eventing Fight Night 75 in Japan opposite Barnett, Big Country found himself in a war of attrition. While he is mostly known for his devastating punching power, he did strong work along the cage and on the mat with one of MMA's craftiest veterans. Unfortunately, Barnett's catch wrestling and clinchwork proved to be the difference, and Nelson came up short on the scorecards to the tune of 48-47, 48-47 and 50-45.
Unsurprisingly, Nelson received a hefty 190-day medical suspension, via MixedMartialArts.com. It will be interesting to see when, and where, he ends up returning.
