With the shoulder dislocation, that certainly was some great sportsmanship. However, I have seen one match where someone dislocated their shoulder, they were trying to get someone to help reset it but nobody was helping him. I think they were trying to get the doctor to come do it or something. After a minute or so the other fighter came up and offered to reset it for him, allowing them to continue the fight. Now that’s some excellent sportsmanship! It’s a great clip and a wonderful moment in combat sports that I’m glad was captured on video.
I’m also surprised you didn’t include some of the catastrophic leg breaks from leg kicks, like Chris Weidman or Anderson Silva’s. I know you got Connor’s in there but that one was pretty mild compared to Chris and Anderson’s breaks😂 Maybe add them to the list for next time along with the arm dislocation video I mentioned.
As someone who had many many shoulder dislocations from football, seeing that clip just makes me hurt man. You can tell he’s done it so many times by how loose it is and how he still has movement. Eventually it does feel like you can just kinda wiggle it back in. It sucks too because when I throw anything I have fear of throwing my arm out and I really wanna try boxing or jiu jitsu but don’t know if I can.
On some level I can relate to this as someone who has hEDS. I've dislocated my fingers and wrists so many times and in some ways your body just adapts to it after a long while. Definitely get your fear of dislocating. I'll quite literally drop what I'm carrying if I feel a joint start shifting.
You can do BJJ just make sure your partners know about your shoulder and ask them not to crank too hard. You can do your part by tapping on time and not holding out especially if you don't know how to escape

It hurts ocasionally but im glad i can move my arm and train again.
What would you say is the pain scale for that? Have you dislocated it multiple times? asking bc i Experienced my first dislocation (elbow) a couple years back.

I was in a serious transport accident in the US Navy back in 2004 (Bus accident, you can look it up easy, slow news day). Both my legs were crushed, one was amputated. The one that i kept was having a real tough time healing due to gaps in the bone where there were missing pieces. Since I was active duty, the military covered my "new experimental treatment" which was...a Bone Stimulator. You cannot expect a 19 year old to continually use a bone stimulator while calling it that. I eventually needed the rod in my tibia removed, had a larger hole reamed for a new rod, and the shavings were placed in the gap at the break, which with some more bone stimulation, eventually bridged together and healed up. Took 15 months, cool to see they have improved, cause it used to be almost the size of a briefcase.

1:45 I fixed my own nose the first time I got it destroyed in a fight when living overseas. Got both hands and I felt the cartilage crunching into place but hey, beats a dice roll trip to a Saudi doctor. Nose has been fine all these years since, but I do notice I have way more room in my right nostril than my left. The cartilage is slightly bending to one side
I’m glad you’re sharing your input on these injuries. Being a teen many many years ago we would do some stupid things. Broke bones cuts you name it. Today with the internet sharing stupidity it’s becoming a plague. I’m glad I live in Canada and most medical expenses are paid and I couldn’t imagine the cost of a simple operation. I think your show should be shared in every High school where a stupid decisions could be avoided. Not saying everyone should sit in front of computers and go the opposite end of the health spectrum but just giving people an idea of what could happen I enjoyed your show because I still end up with some pretty bad injuries even though I’m very careful Thanks again
The most outrageous part is that not only did Michael Bisping continue fighting with only one good eye, but he actually became the champion of the middleweight division.
Whenever I see Dr Mike posted a new video I always watch till the end and never get bored or distracted ( I usually get distracted very easily) and I love how he explains everything so we can understand him . Thank you for that Dr Mike .🫀
I really like how every single video you post I actually learn something new! You explain everything clearly and slowly. Great video! Thank you dr mike!
The foot drop happened to me years ago and i didnt know if i was ever going to be able to walk again, the brace wasn't helping much so i ended up taping my foot in position with duct tape so i could walk. 😅 I regained control of it back within a few weeks but it was scary as hell tho !
I’ve heard there is more head trauma & damage to the brain in boxing because of the repeated punches to the head. Head punches are half of boxing. Meanwhile in MMA you can attack the legs, body shot, go to the ground and wrestle.
@@Bald_and_Brown Yeah that certainly makes sense. The more variability of fighting styles and targets in MMA means a much larger variety of injuries, but much less consequentially so. When your only targets are the torso and the head, it seems the risk of debilitating injuries to the head will be much higher and more dangerous.
@@Bald_and_Brown I’ve heard that as well. My friend’s husband was a professional MMA fighter and she said something similar. I’d been interested to see if the data supports the anecdotal evidence.
@@Bald_and_Brown There is also no 10 count in MMA so if someone is knocked down and not defending properly the fight will stop, it is also easier to knock someone out with the smaller gloves they use and that is actually a good thing regarding brain injurys its way more healthy for you brain to get knocked earlier in the fight than going 12 rounds taking 100's of small punches to your head
I'm a former professional basketball player and I've dislocated my should and it took me months to figure out what was wrong with my shoulder. I never stopped playing but I was playing with a dislocated shoulder. Professionals work on a different level. Pain is life period. The one thing I was taught was pain is normal, injuries need to be taken care of but when it's win or die it becomes how much pain can you deal with......
7:20 "I have no idea about a prosthetic lens, that's above my pay grade" You know it's a serious deal when even Dr. Mike gets surprised (I had never heard about those either).
Yes! Jennifer Sae’s broken femur, Blaine Wilson’s torn bicep, Morgan Hamm’s shoulder, the guy who was vaulting and had a nasty compound fracture… those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head that I know there is footage of.
when i startedBack when I started following Dr. Mike, I was a bit lost and feeling like I wasn't going anywhere. Over the years, not much has changed for me, but seeing that even someone successful like Dr. Mike doesn't have a perfect life-no family, just a dog and more money-brings me a bit of comfort. It's not about finding joy in others' struggles, but realizing that even the seemingly best have their own challenges. This motivates me to keep going. Thanks, Dr. Mike.
I found you two from the shorts section but I'm so glad I found you! Your the most adorable couple ever. It's the most wholesome lovely marriage I've seen in a long time. I hope you two last forever
Some of these injuries are absolutely insane! Also request: Could you react to horseback riding injuries? I'm an equestrian and I'd love to see your take on it!
@@TeutonicEmperor1198 Sadly it's around 100 per year in North America alone, and most are head related injuries. Lots of people get injuries in their spine and neck as well, which can have life changing effects.
@@DawnTheEquestrian Are you serious? Oh my God! I knew that many people have died falling from horseback throughout history, but 100 people per years, nowadays? That's insane. Do you know if the head related injuries are mostly either skull fractures or kneck hyperextentions?
@@TeutonicEmperor1198 Most are skull related. And half of the injuries happen when we aren't even riding, since being kicked/bitten isn't very unheard of. Most people outside of the sport do assume it's easy, but all of the injuries are one of the reasons we get so defensive when people tell us it isn't a sport haha.
@@DawnTheEquestrian I can see how a 500kg behemoth kicking someone to the face with it's metal horseshoe can easily kill them. I was bitten once by a donkey and it was really painful so I can imagine, even though it was skin deep. Only people with low IQ can assume horse riding as easy. I have ridden horses twice and was really difficult. And those horses were calm as senile sheep. Maybe one of them was a mule, I'm not sure. From my understanding, people who engage in competitive horse riding are forced to spend half of their days bonding and practicing with their steeds. So they are like any other professional athlete, right?
Ooh! Okay! So, I didn't know about the little ultrasound machine for bone healing, but I honestly would not be surprised if its frequency is very similar to a cat's purr! Research has shown that that frequency actually helps speed up healing, which is why cats have been known to purr when injured, and not just when they're happy. Also, watching all this reminded me of a Muay Thai match I watched when I was a kid. The fighter kicked his opponent in the face, and I don't know what he had going on in that leg, but when he brought it back down and put weight on it, his tibia snapped and the bone came right out the side.
3:08 this sort of happened to me once. i was sitting on my foot and when i went to stand up i couldn’t feel my foot at all and ended up just rolling my ankle and falling. twas not fun
I think we need a part two! Specifically to cover Silva/Weidman's leg breaks, and MVP vs Cyborg for the most brutal bone fracture of all time. Also Jacare Souza getting his arm broken
Didn't have Anderson Silva's leg literally snapping on him as he went in for a kick against Chris Weidman on UFC 168. Tibia literally wrapped around Weidman's shin. Really thought that'd be in here.
MEEE TOO. Seeing that fight back in the day was shocking to see. I remember the entire room of people all making the same sound like "OOOOOOOOOOOH" watching the replay of his leg snapping.
A volleyball injuries video would be cool because that is another sporting league and the injuries are always interesting on how they happen or what they are
I watched the McGregor Vs Poirier fight live. When McGregor fell, I genuinely thought he broke his leg and when I found out he did, I was shocked because as a boxer myself, I have had some nasty injuries and cuts but I almost broke my leg too and it was lucky I didn't. Great Vid, keep doing your thing Mike ❤🙏
DR MIKE! Can you teach us about drug addiction and the stigmas around it? People don't understand its a disease. I lead group therapy and was looking for a video of you talking about drug addiction but I can't find one! Thank you for teaching so many of us.
Hi Dr Mike , to love to hear your take about our Heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou and having the hard punch in the world recorded and the way he knocks out his appionants till they are completely shut down with his KO
The first few times i dislocated my right shoulder it hurt like hell, but i always was able to pop it back in myself. After a few more times it didn't even really hurt anymore, but was super inconvenient since it happened all the time. Fixed it with a very good physical therapist who of course didn't get the labrum back in place but helped me to build muscle to stabilize the shoulder and also taught me what movements to avoid.
@@pushpathakur7842 Sure, but i can only advice you to get your own therapist, cause every injury is different. Basically i was told to avoid putting sudden pressure on the arm while the arm is overhead or twisted. For example in basketball, if someone hits the ball against your hand, while it's overhead and you don't have time to flex the muscle to counteract the impact on the shoulder joint. The exercises began with low weight lat pulls, rotator cuff training, face pulls, front and side raises and also mobility training. After i had the basic stability back (after about half a year) i got new exercises to pretty much train every muscle that is connected to the shoulder area. Back pulls, push ups, chin ups, chest and back flys, pull ups, triceps and biceps, bench press, shoulder press and so on, while keeping up with the mobility training. i wish you all the best to heal your shoulder and getting better.
8:46 I almost felt that! I've dislocated my shoulder around 200 times because of my seizures, it's so loose now I dislocate it just reaching for something, I have to get some major surgery on it
Hi mike, nice content. While watching the video i remembered a floof besides the newf. ROXY!!!! I miss her and im sure others do too. Can you please give us an update on her? Please and thank you❤❤❤
A bit of misconception with the Bisping eye injury as of recent, fans discover old interviews of Bisping talking about issues with the eye prior to the Vitor fight. Probably Vitor was the guy who finally destroyed it
My coach always used to say “fighters will always fight” which is why it’s important to have coaches and doctors who will force them not to for their own good.
Shoutout to Doctor Mike I learned so much from him that now everytime I watch my favourite TV shows I start arguing out loud with the characters if there's any medical inaccuracy. And you know it's so fun when you watch classic sci-fi show like Stargate X'D
Hello doctor Mike, good afternoon, I loved the video, it is incredible all the punishment that the fighters receive. In boxing fights like MMA, fighters cut their weight through dehydration, for example, in MMA a middleweight fighter has to weigh 185 lb, he cuts his weight by dehydrating, after weighing he rehydrates and now weighs 215 lb which would be his natural weight (or walking weight as they call it). I believe that doing this over and over again can have a very negative effect on the body, and in the long term cause many health problems. It would be great if you made a video where you can explain all the negative effects that this can generate.
Perhaps the most interesting injury I can recall from a UFC fight was when Josh Koscheck's own corner displaced a zygomatic fracture between rounds, sent him back out to keep getting punched, and he suffered permanent nerve damage in his face.
I feel for Bisping, as it seems he could have caught it sooner. My mother has had several detached retinas - EDS runs in the family. I will never forget the day when I stopped by my friend's house, to say hello to his mom on a whim, after he moved out of town, to check up on her. In our conversation, she casually mentioned she was experiencing the same symptoms. I immediately took her to the ER and she was straightaway scheduled for emergency surgery. She has since survived cancer, and still thanks me to this day, saying she would rather have died than lost her vision. I say, it was only one eye, and instead, thank God for putting the thought and impulse in me to visit her at random, when I never had before. Bless you Ms. H.
Great video as always. However you should react to AFL's (Australian football league) worst injuries as it is one of the most dangerous sports out there and nit very known outside of Australia.
8:39 I've had same exact thing during street fight. We got separated and I popped my shoulder back in and was ready to go again, that was really painful experience, but with all adrenaline pumping it was still bad. It happened when the guy bear hugged me, my left arm with shoulder was in really weird position. That squeeze from he's side, was perfect. Now I have to be careful doing pull ups, because my shoulder ain't never gonna be the same. It's basically prone to happen again, more easily.
Dr Mike !!! Your content is so great and full of knowledge, I’d really appreciate if you could talk about all of these new trending so called “superfoods” like Huel and other things similar. Are those good for you ? It would be amazing if you could give us some advice!! Big fan here! Thanks for all you do!
I've used the ultrasound bone stimulation device. After a bad break in my ankle that required surgical repair and after months and not all of the breaks were fusing, my doctor had me start using one. A year after surgery and all of the breaks were fully healed/fused/closed, whatever you want to say.
It's crazy how Dr. Mike watches all of these, understands its medical danger, and still wants to be a boxer.
Because a boxer doesn't have to worry about being cut like this as opposed to an mma fighter. There is still risk for sure, but getting cut up badly is not one of them.

I was in a serious transport accident in the US Navy back in 2004 (Bus accident, you can look it up easy, slow news day). Both my legs were crushed, one was amputated. The one that i kept was having a real tough time healing due to gaps in the bone where there were missing pieces. Since I was active duty, the military covered my "new experimental treatment" which was...a Bone Stimulator. You cannot expect a 19 year old to continually use a bone stimulator while calling it that. I eventually needed the rod in my tibia removed, had a larger hole reamed for a new rod, and the shavings were placed in the gap at the break, which with some more bone stimulation, eventually bridged together and healed up. Took 15 months, cool to see they have improved, cause it used to be almost the size of a briefcase.
I like how he always explains everything really well
I love how he puts so much time into this and teaches us so much. I have learned so much from his channel and I am so grateful!
He makes money from it. That’s why he puts all this time
and? the same with other people on this platform. At least he is spreading a message and education. Which I think you need more of.@@damage0311
@@damage0311 I know but he doesn’t have to :)
@@BaylieWhite-fz9zz what do you mean he doesn’t have to? It’s literally his job. Grow up a little would ya?
@@Ranamon9132 I mean if he didn’t want to do TH-cam in the first place he didn’t have to and he could just go back to working in the medical field and quit TH-cam. How about you think
Rugby injuries are similarity crazy. I’d love to see a video on those!
I like that you've got a note on this page from TH-cam saying that you're a real doctor 💪🏾😌
1:45 - "No, no don't fix it!" haha that got me
👏HORSE👏BACK👏RIDING👏

Mike I pray to God PLEASE🙏🙏 nobody gives us the recognition we deserve
I read wild horse injuries and immediately thought: Wait, would he review the injuries the HORSES would get? 😂😅
😂 Poor horses.
Yasssssss I wish I had video of my last OTTB concussion 😅😅
i sign this
literally just commented this
I was wondering if you could possibly see hockey injuries, it would make a really interesting video. Live your channel!
He’s done them before, hope this helps
It would be awesome if doctor mike reacted to gymnastics fails. They can be brutal
Agreed! It’s my favorite sport!
1:45 I fixed my own nose the first time I got it destroyed in a fight when living overseas. Got both hands and I felt the cartilage crunching into place but hey, beats a dice roll trip to a Saudi doctor. Nose has been fine all these years since, but I do notice I have way more room in my right nostril than my left. The cartilage is slightly bending to one side
I’m glad you’re sharing your input on these injuries.
Being a teen many many years ago we would do some stupid things.
Broke bones cuts you name it.
Today with the internet sharing stupidity it’s becoming a plague.
I’m glad I live in Canada and most medical expenses are paid and I couldn’t imagine the cost of a simple operation.
I think your show should be shared in every High school where a stupid decisions could be avoided.
Not saying everyone should sit in front of computers and go the opposite end of the health spectrum but just giving people an idea of what could happen
I enjoyed your show because I still end up with some pretty bad injuries even though I’m very careful
Thanks again
Those are fricking painful to watch. Thanks for sharing your medical insight on those. I didn't know that those lense prosthetics even exist
The most outrageous part is that not only did Michael Bisping continue fighting with only one good eye, but he actually became the champion of the middleweight division.
Whenever I see Dr Mike posted a new video I always watch till the end and never get bored or distracted ( I usually get distracted very easily) and I love how he explains everything so we can understand him . Thank you for that Dr Mike .🫀
Same here
2:15 Docter Mike know he wrong for putting that sound effect in💀
Props to whoever collected these clips. A great selection and even I didn’t know about jds’ shoulder
I really like how every single video you post I actually learn something new! You explain everything clearly and slowly. Great video! Thank you dr mike!
The foot drop happened to me years ago and i didnt know if i was ever going to be able to walk again, the brace wasn't helping much so i ended up taping my foot in position with duct tape so i could walk. 😅
I regained control of it back within a few weeks but it was scary as hell tho !
I appreciate you sharing human moments of the struggle to watch these. How do UFC injuries differ from boxing injuries?
I’ve heard there is more head trauma & damage to the brain in boxing because of the repeated punches to the head. Head punches are half of boxing. Meanwhile in MMA you can attack the legs, body shot, go to the ground and wrestle.
@@Bald_and_Brown Yeah that certainly makes sense. The more variability of fighting styles and targets in MMA means a much larger variety of injuries, but much less consequentially so. When your only targets are the torso and the head, it seems the risk of debilitating injuries to the head will be much higher and more dangerous.
@@Bald_and_Brown I’ve heard that as well. My friend’s husband was a professional MMA fighter and she said something similar. I’d been interested to see if the data supports the anecdotal evidence.
@@Bald_and_Brown There is also no 10 count in MMA so if someone is knocked down and not defending properly the fight will stop, it is also easier to knock someone out with the smaller gloves they use and that is actually a good thing regarding brain injurys its way more healthy for you brain to get knocked earlier in the fight than going 12 rounds taking 100's of small punches to your head
Boxing is just punching to the head and body. UFC most anything goes. Kicking ,Choking, Body Slams etc.
Can you do equestrian injuries? Some of those are crazy and it’s not often a sport people talk about
I'm a former professional basketball player and I've dislocated my should and it took me months to figure out what was wrong with my shoulder. I never stopped playing but I was playing with a dislocated shoulder. Professionals work on a different level. Pain is life period. The one thing I was taught was pain is normal, injuries need to be taken care of but when it's win or die it becomes how much pain can you deal with......
7:20 "I have no idea about a prosthetic lens, that's above my pay grade" You know it's a serious deal when even Dr. Mike gets surprised (I had never heard about those either).
Just happened to open comments and start reading this literally as Dr Mike was saying it😂😂😂
My friend is in Paris right now
Hey Dr Mike! I would love to see some gymnastics injuries!
Was just going to comment this! 🙏🏻
Yes! Jennifer Sae’s broken femur, Blaine Wilson’s torn bicep, Morgan Hamm’s shoulder, the guy who was vaulting and had a nasty compound fracture… those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head that I know there is footage of.
when i startedBack when I started following Dr. Mike, I was a bit lost and feeling like I wasn't going anywhere. Over the years, not much has changed for me, but seeing that even someone successful like Dr. Mike doesn't have a perfect life-no family, just a dog and more money-brings me a bit of comfort. It's not about finding joy in others' struggles, but realizing that even the seemingly best have their own challenges. This motivates me to keep going. Thanks, Dr. Mike.
i love ufc so much but it’s crazy how bad the injuries can get
This is why I love TH-cam! It makes it easier to find Doctors like Dr Mike. 😁
I found you two from the shorts section but I'm so glad I found you! Your the most adorable couple ever. It's the most wholesome lovely marriage I've seen in a long time. I hope you two last forever
Some of these injuries are absolutely insane! Also request: Could you react to horseback riding injuries? I'm an equestrian and I'd love to see your take on it!
How often do people die from falling from horseback?
@@TeutonicEmperor1198 Sadly it's around 100 per year in North America alone, and most are head related injuries. Lots of people get injuries in their spine and neck as well, which can have life changing effects.
@@DawnTheEquestrian Are you serious? Oh my God! I knew that many people have died falling from horseback throughout history, but 100 people per years, nowadays? That's insane. Do you know if the head related injuries are mostly either skull fractures or kneck hyperextentions?
@@TeutonicEmperor1198 Most are skull related. And half of the injuries happen when we aren't even riding, since being kicked/bitten isn't very unheard of. Most people outside of the sport do assume it's easy, but all of the injuries are one of the reasons we get so defensive when people tell us it isn't a sport haha.
@@DawnTheEquestrian I can see how a 500kg behemoth kicking someone to the face with it's metal horseshoe can easily kill them. I was bitten once by a donkey and it was really painful so I can imagine, even though it was skin deep. Only people with low IQ can assume horse riding as easy. I have ridden horses twice and was really difficult. And those horses were calm as senile sheep. Maybe one of them was a mule, I'm not sure. From my understanding, people who engage in competitive horse riding are forced to spend half of their days bonding and practicing with their steeds. So they are like any other professional athlete, right?
Ooh! Okay! So, I didn't know about the little ultrasound machine for bone healing, but I honestly would not be surprised if its frequency is very similar to a cat's purr! Research has shown that that frequency actually helps speed up healing, which is why cats have been known to purr when injured, and not just when they're happy.
Also, watching all this reminded me of a Muay Thai match I watched when I was a kid. The fighter kicked his opponent in the face, and I don't know what he had going on in that leg, but when he brought it back down and put weight on it, his tibia snapped and the bone came right out the side.
@doctormikevashavski3212 scam
3:08 this sort of happened to me once. i was sitting on my foot and when i went to stand up i couldn’t feel my foot at all and ended up just rolling my ankle and falling. twas not fun
Same
I think we need a part two! Specifically to cover Silva/Weidman's leg breaks, and MVP vs Cyborg for the most brutal bone fracture of all time. Also Jacare Souza getting his arm broken
Its strange that i misread the "Skull bruise" on the thumbnail to "skill issue" man im so high
Didn't have Anderson Silva's leg literally snapping on him as he went in for a kick against Chris Weidman on UFC 168. Tibia literally wrapped around Weidman's shin. Really thought that'd be in here.
MEEE TOO. Seeing that fight back in the day was shocking to see. I remember the entire room of people all making the same sound like "OOOOOOOOOOOH" watching the replay of his leg snapping.
Chris Weidman suffer the same inquires later on in carrier ....
A volleyball injuries video would be cool because that is another sporting league and the injuries are always interesting on how they happen or what they are
I watched the McGregor Vs Poirier fight live. When McGregor fell, I genuinely thought he broke his leg and when I found out he did, I was shocked because as a boxer myself, I have had some nasty injuries and cuts but I almost broke my leg too and it was lucky I didn't. Great Vid, keep doing your thing Mike ❤🙏
Very interesting stuff. Appreciate your work.
DR MIKE! Can you teach us about drug addiction and the stigmas around it? People don't understand its a disease. I lead group therapy and was looking for a video of you talking about drug addiction but I can't find one! Thank you for teaching so many of us.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEE do ice hockey, it soo rough especially in British leagues!
Hi Dr Mike , to love to hear your take about our Heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou and having the hard punch in the world recorded and the way he knocks out his appionants till they are completely shut down with his KO
@doctormikevashavski3212 scam
Everyone report the very obviously fake Dr. Mike account above me. People don’t even attempt to look or sound convincing these days. ☝🏻😅
The first few times i dislocated my right shoulder it hurt like hell, but i always was able to pop it back in myself. After a few more times it didn't even really hurt anymore, but was super inconvenient since it happened all the time.
Fixed it with a very good physical therapist who of course didn't get the labrum back in place but helped me to build muscle to stabilize the shoulder and also taught me what movements to avoid.
Can you give me brief list of actions to avoid and exercises to stabilise the joint.. Thanks
@@pushpathakur7842 Sure, but i can only advice you to get your own therapist, cause every injury is different.
Basically i was told to avoid putting sudden pressure on the arm while the arm is overhead or twisted. For example in basketball, if someone hits the ball against your hand, while it's overhead and you don't have time to flex the muscle to counteract the impact on the shoulder joint.
The exercises began with low weight lat pulls, rotator cuff training, face pulls, front and side raises and also mobility training. After i had the basic stability back (after about half a year) i got new exercises to pretty much train every muscle that is connected to the shoulder area. Back pulls, push ups, chin ups, chest and back flys, pull ups, triceps and biceps, bench press, shoulder press and so on, while keeping up with the mobility training.
i wish you all the best to heal your shoulder and getting better.
8:46 I almost felt that! I've dislocated my shoulder around 200 times because of my seizures, it's so loose now I dislocate it just reaching for something, I have to get some major surgery on it
as a diehard mixed martial artist and huge UFC fan, this video was amazing
Hi mike, nice content. While watching the video i remembered a floof besides the newf. ROXY!!!! I miss her and im sure others do too. Can you please give us an update on her? Please and thank you❤❤❤
yes how is she doing? 😊
Note to self. No MMA.
Fr fr
Frrr
It isn’t that bad
No martial arts?
Fr mma is insane wwe and boxing and martial arts all in one💀
A bit of misconception with the Bisping eye injury as of recent, fans discover old interviews of Bisping talking about issues with the eye prior to the Vitor fight. Probably Vitor was the guy who finally destroyed it
My coach always used to say “fighters will always fight” which is why it’s important to have coaches and doctors who will force them not to for their own good.
Love your content!!!
Hockey injuries can be brutal, both field and ice. Would be cool if you looked at some of those
He randomly popped up on my fyp, I didn't watch him for such a long time! It was just a blast of nostalgia
Shoutout to Doctor Mike I learned so much from him that now everytime I watch my favourite TV shows I start arguing out loud with the characters if there's any medical inaccuracy. And you know it's so fun when you watch classic sci-fi show like Stargate X'D
He looks physically hurt when diagnosing those injuries.
Hello doctor Mike, good afternoon, I loved the video, it is incredible all the punishment that the fighters receive.
In boxing fights like MMA, fighters cut their weight through dehydration, for example, in MMA a middleweight fighter has to weigh 185 lb, he cuts his weight by dehydrating, after weighing he rehydrates and now weighs 215 lb which would be his natural weight (or walking weight as they call it).
I believe that doing this over and over again can have a very negative effect on the body, and in the long term cause many health problems.
It would be great if you made a video where you can explain all the negative effects that this can generate.
Perhaps the most interesting injury I can recall from a UFC fight was when Josh Koscheck's own corner displaced a zygomatic fracture between rounds, sent him back out to keep getting punched, and he suffered permanent nerve damage in his face.
Never seen this chanel before really enjoyed this video 🔥🔥
You need to react to painful gymnastics injuries next
Love your videos
Could you do horseback riding injuries?
First girl looking like Megamind after that fight
💀
0:52 Dude got his so fast even his body had a late reaction.
I feel for Bisping, as it seems he could have caught it sooner. My mother has had several detached retinas - EDS runs in the family. I will never forget the day when I stopped by my friend's house, to say hello to his mom on a whim, after he moved out of town, to check up on her. In our conversation, she casually mentioned she was experiencing the same symptoms. I immediately took her to the ER and she was straightaway scheduled for emergency surgery. She has since survived cancer, and still thanks me to this day, saying she would rather have died than lost her vision. I say, it was only one eye, and instead, thank God for putting the thought and impulse in me to visit her at random, when I never had before. Bless you Ms. H.
4:40 the guy he was fighting was a former soccer player if I remember right.
Great video as always. However you should react to AFL's (Australian football league) worst injuries as it is one of the most dangerous sports out there and nit very known outside of Australia.
4:53 i know what ur thinking
what?
0:12 she got turned into Dr Zomboss
Made my day
Been patiently waiting years for this reaction video
Doc, many years ago, I was a kickboxer, I also moonlighted as a medic with a Doctor who was also a fighter, great memories!.
10:45 Burp or gag? lol
I like my own comment because nobody else would
I just learned so much in 3 minutes I had to immediately subscribe
8:39 I've had same exact thing during street fight. We got separated and I popped my shoulder back in and was ready to go again, that was really painful experience, but with all adrenaline pumping it was still bad. It happened when the guy bear hugged me, my left arm with shoulder was in really weird position. That squeeze from he's side, was perfect.
Now I have to be careful doing pull ups, because my shoulder ain't never gonna be the same. It's basically prone to happen again, more easily.
Gotta love these videos!
It’s a beautiful day when mike upload s
One of the best fights I've ever watched.
Dr Mike !!! Your content is so great and full of knowledge, I’d really appreciate if you could talk about all of these new trending so called “superfoods” like Huel and other things similar. Are those good for you ? It would be amazing if you could give us some advice!! Big fan here! Thanks for all you do!
He is capable Dr to recognize by seeing patient...Excellent
Hope you'll do more of these, very interesting 👍🏻
I've used the ultrasound bone stimulation device. After a bad break in my ankle that required surgical repair and after months and not all of the breaks were fusing, my doctor had me start using one. A year after surgery and all of the breaks were fully healed/fused/closed, whatever you want to say.
The Lord Of The Rings was shot on Vitor's back during that fight 🤣 SO JUICY🧃🧃
