King Mo Lawal In Serious Condition After ACL Surgery

via admin.mmaweekly.com

Via Twitter, Robert Joyner is reporting that "King Mo" Muhammed Lawal is suffering very serious complications following an ACL injury. Lawal was apparently re-injured his knee in his January bout against Lorenz Larkin at Strikeforce: Rockhold vs. Jardine. To make matters worse, because the ACL surgery was related to recurring/existing condition, the insurance provided by Zuffa/Strikeforce does not cover Lawal's medical expenses in this case. Lawal's immediate future in MMA was already under question as he failed his post-fight drug tests following the fight with Larkin and was awaiting his hearing with the athletic commission.

That’s some scary shit to hear. Sucks that insurance won’t cover it, but if there is a bit of a silver lining on that front it’s that Zuffa will almost certainly be stepping in out of pocket to help out with Mo’s costs. Hopefully he can make a full recovery.

On a happier note, according to the UG’s FrontRowBrian Mo is now out of the danger of amputation, will be training again in 6 weeks after the catheter is out and is fine financially, with minimal costs coming out of pocket.

Fuck

Love Mo as a fighter and a personality, but even if I didn’t, I hope he’s okay soon.

This must be a really hard time for him and I hope he’s got a strong support system around him.

I sure as hell don’t like Mo, but he doesn’t deserve this. Hope he is in better condition soon.
