Brian Ortega had a lot of adversity to deal with before entering the cage at UFC Fight Night 237. Ortega (15-4 MMA, 7-4 UFC) avenged his loss to Yair Rodriguez (18-5 MMA, 10-4 UFC) by second-round submission in this past Saturday in Mexico City . As Bruce Buffer introduced Ortega in the octagon, “T-City” jumped up and sprained his ankle in the landing – but that’s not the only thing he had to worry about. His coach, Rener Gracie, revealed on Instagram that Ortega suffered a gash under his right eye in training, just weeks before his fight.
