UFC’s Eddie Wineland: ‘I need to look at the big picture’ after broken jaw

BAD MMA News — Fri, 16 May 2014 16:10:04 +0000

Following a TKO loss to Johnny Eduardo this past Saturday in Cincinnati, former WEC bantamweight champion Eddie Wineland has found himself at a career crossroads. Wineland told MMAjunkie he suffered a broken jaw in the fight, and on Wednesday he underwent surgery in Chicago. With his jaw currently wired shut, Wineland said a doctor recommended he reassess his fighting career. For someone like Wineland, who holds down a full-time job as a firefighter in Northwest Indiana along with being one of the UFC’s elite-level bantamweights – and someone who as recently as this past September fought for the title – the prospect of calling it a career is one that’s tough to stomach. “I’m just not so sure it’s worth the risk,” Wineland told MMAjunkie. “I’ve got a lot I need to wrestle with right now.” Wineland said he’ll be on the sidelines from all activity – fighting and training, obviously, as well as working at the firehouse – for six weeks
