Carwin Update:Successful Surgery Smile
[Image: 4815-shane_carwin_surgery.jpg]
Former UFC interim heavyweight champion Shane Carwin (12-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) is recovering from a Tuesday surgery on his back that his manager, Jason Genet, has deemed "successful."

Genet posted updates on his Twitter account today regarding his client's condition.

"Carwin is out of surgery and in the recovery room," Genet stated. "No complications during surgery."

According to Genet, Carwin underwent a foraminotomy. The procedure is used to relieve pressure on compressed and pinched nerves. Although considered minimally invasive, the surgery requires incisions in the back of the neck and in the affected vertebrae.

According to Genet, specialist Dr. Chad Prusmack used the procedure to target Carwin's C5, C6 and C7 vertebrae and was surprised by what he found during the repair.

"Surgery went well," Genet stated. "It took just under four hours to complete. The nerve damage was worse than the MRI showed, but they cleaned it up."

Genet said Carwin was under a "powerful" anesthesia during the surgery due to his size, but that the former interim champ was able to communicate that he was feeling no numbness or pain.

Carwin has also taken to Twitter to assure fans he is fine following the procedure.

"I am alive," Carwin stated. "Thanks for all your support."

A timetable for Carwin's return to action has not yet been established.

Carwin had been expected to face Roy Nelson at UFC 125 on Jan. 1, but the lingering back issues forced him to withdraw from the contest and seek out medical attention.

Carwin hasn't fought since UFC 116, when he suffered a second-round submission loss to then-heavyweight champ Lesnar. Carwin nearly ended the fight in the first round with a vicious barrage of punches, but Lesnar survived and then capitalized on a quickly fading Carwin to secure a fight-ending arm-triangle choke. Prior to the loss, the former interim champ had posted 12 consecutive wins, all of which came via first-round stoppage.

What did I miss in last weeks UF as my sky+ didnt record it?


RE: UFC - groundnpound - 08-11-2010 15:00

Hows it goin Gaz!Basically Sako Chivitchian Beat Dane Sayers By UD.Pretty boring fight i'd say! lol Both coaches then had the sit down with Dana to choose the wild cards...GSP was trying to make a case for Dane Sayers but in the end White went with two fighters from Koscheck's team.Aaron Wilkinson and Mark Stevens.So these two will fight on Tuesday in the Wild Card round.

Here's a link to last weeks show vid.

Looks like this week will be a good show with Koscheck causing a scrap in the gym because of his relentless piss taking lol

Should be good! Smile


RE: UFC - gazfc - 08-11-2010 15:41

Cheers for that, hopefully Aaron will win the wildcard. He was very impressive against Johnson and unlucky to have lost.

Personally I like koscheck but he is a cocky fucker, who do you think will win out of him and GSP??

I think and hope GSP would win, I can't be doing with Koscheck. He's got a mouth on him like he's already a legend in the game. Way too cocky for me.


RE: UFC - groundnpound - 08-11-2010 19:47

Welcome to the thread BaddaBing! Smile Good to have you Smile

No probs on the link AV Wink

I think GSP will take care of Koscheck Gaz.Unless Koscheck can manage to knock him out or beat him up....Somehow?GSP for me is too classy and has better skills than any fighter in the Division.He's such an all round top fighter!The pound for pound king of the UFC!He's a proper nice guy aswell.Really like him!

Koscheck will be one of the best wrestlers GSP has ever faced though so he might not have it all his own way but he should take care of him! Wink

Looking forward to it already! Smile

Glad to be here Groundnpound. I read through the thread and you guys really know your MMA, my knowledge is a little more limited to the more well known fighters but I'm a fan none the less.

I think the same about GSP, he's too well rounded for Koshchek, unless (like said) he can find a clean KO from somewhere. I would say I can't see that happening, but then I said the same thing shortly before Hardy got pinged the other week, lol.


RE: UFC - mitchell - 09-11-2010 01:31

Now then boys, i've not been around for a few days, obviously not missed much. GSP v Koscheck, i don't think this is as clean cut as some might think as Koscheck is now one of, if not the one fighter who has shown the most improvement during his time in the UFC. Like him or not he's a very good fighter & now boasts a good stand up game & is probably a better wrestler than GSP. & both fighters have a very equal record with KO's, Subs & decisions so i expect this to go the full 5 rounds.


RE: UFC - Gaz "AV1" Aston - 09-11-2010 01:38

I know Koscheck has improved expenentially since entering the UFC but
i still feel the fight will go much the same way as their first fight. I think
ultimatley GSP is still pound for pound the best fighter and even now is
still improving. For those that havent seen it here is their fight at UFC74 Big Grin

Georges St. Pierre vs Josh Koscheck UFC 74
