Yoshiaki Yatsu is a badass! Wants revenge!

[YeLLa-TiGeR]

Taken from the PRIDE Website

YATSU: I injured three parts of my body. My vision is double because my eye was hit very hard by Gary Goodridge's straight punch (Yatsu1s opponent in his MMA debut). The third finger of my hand is fractured. My thigh muscle was torn from Gary1s kick. The doctor estimated I need a month for complete recovery and another month for rehabilitation.

PRIDE: How are your eyes?

YATSU: My left eye is hardly damaged but somehow the back of my right eye was injured. I was told by the doctor "You need to get surgery otherwise your vision will be double forever." But it has healed rapidly by itself. My vision is now almost clear. The doctor said recently "You don't need surgery". I still sometimes see double but it will be cured completely in a month.

PRIDE: When will you start training again?

YATSU: It is impossible now. Well, I can train some parts of my body, like biceps. But it is meaningless to train only biceps. I will resume my pro-wrestling fights on November 28. My arm covered with the cast may be a good weapon in pro-wrestling fights. I will try a backhand blow with it.
