Flyweight Jerome Rivera is back home in Santa Fe, N.M., resting his arm and waiting for another test to give him some good news. Rivera (7-2) was a highlight reel for all the wrong reasons this past Friday when he suffered a broken radial bone and a dislocated elbow just 40 seconds into an AXS-TV broadcast fight with Brandon Royval (7-3) at LFA 39. An MRI will determine whether Rivera suffered ligament damage, requiring a longer recovery period. Doctors originally expected he would be out for four to six weeks.
