“I had an operation but I didn’t tell anyone,” Soldic revealed. But then the injury grew in size, with a bulge sticking out of his stomach that forced him to undergo surgery. Soldic says the hernia was only minor until he absorbed the punishment from the knee. In two days, I was good, but mentally, why did this happen to me when I have to show people who I am against a very good guy? But everything happens for a reason.”Īccording to Soldic, the worst part about the groin strike was that the knee worsened an already existing hernia that he was dealing with prior to the fight.
“When I tried to pee, it burned,” Soldic said. I was ready.”Īfter he left the cage, Soldic still felt the reverberations from the low blow - and he didn’t really start to feel better until a couple of days later. If somebody gets hit, people say to me they understand, it’s good that you make this decision, but it was hard for me. People don’t understand this because they don’t get hit. “The first thing when I fell down, I said I gave so much in my preparation, but I could not continue. “When a guy catches me in sparring, I’m down for one minutes, two minutes but this time it was horrible. “I used the same cup for 10 years - it never happened to me, even in training,” Soldic told MMA Fighting. Of course, none of that was his fault, and Soldic says he desperately wanted to continue but he could barely move or breathe after the knee blasted him in the groin.
Roberto Soldic was one of the biggest free agent signings in recent ONE Championship history, but his debut suffered an unfortunate ending after he absorbed a brutal groin strike early in the opening round in his fight against Murad Ramazanov that prevented him from continuing.Īfter conquering two divisions at his former home in KSW, Soldic anxiously awaited the chance to prove himself in ONE, but the low blow kept him from making a great first impression.
