In a post fight interview after his defeat of Dae Won Kim, Melvin Manhoef has admitted to fighting, not only with an injury, but with tubes still in his lungs.
In this interview, Manhoef explains that DREAM knew nothing about the injury or the surgery he had a few weeks before his fight. He is what Melvin had to say:
“I didn't tell either Dream or K-1, but I was injured in my last fight against Remy Bonjasky. Because I received a lot of kicks and punches in the ribs, I had to have surgery to take out blood from behind the lung and I was hospitalized for seven days. So, I couldn't fight as aggressively as I wanted, I needed to be patient.”
