DOMINICK REYES has revealed the brutal damage to his leg suffered during his UFC 247 defeat to Jon Jones.
The 30-year-old took Light Heavyweight champ “Bones” the distance but controversially lost as all three judges scored the fight in his opponent’s favour on Sunday.
One even had the title holder winning 49-46, which has come in for plenty of criticism since with Reyes even claiming he felt “disrespected” by that scorecard.
UFC president White admitted afterwards he had Reyes winning 3-1 going into the fifth and feels “The Devastator” deserves another shot at the belt.
And Jones also has no intention of shying away if White makes the second fight.
However, Reyes’ stunning effort inside the cage came at a painful price with a severely bruised leg.
And he has now taken to Instagram to show-off the damage and provide an update to his followers on his post-fight medical.
Along with several snaps of his battered legs, he wrote: “Hey Everyone! I’m doin good, thanks for the tremendous support.
“MRI came back negative, but have some bruising from blunt force trauma.”
Both Jones and Reyes have been handed a 31-day medical suspension following the clash in Houston.
But with neither man due to fight again until the summer, the suspension is a mere formality.
