Former UFC lightweight Melvin Guillard shared hospital photos after breaking his orbital bone against veteran Joe Riggs in their BKFC fight.<\/p>\n

Guillard took on Riggs in a bare-knuckle boxing match in Billings, Montana on Saturday night<\/a>. Riggs won the fight early in the first round when he caught Guillard with a big punch that sent him through the ropes. It was a huge punch, and Guillard immediately collapsed to the mat and held his face. It turns out that Guillard ended up breaking his orbital bone.<\/p>\n

“The Young Assassin” took to his social media<\/a> following the fight with Riggs to share a series of photos from the hospital and share a statement with his fans. In the statement, Guillard confirmed that he suffered five fractures of his orbital bone and he will be having surgery today to fix it. Guillard also admitted that he was scared when he heard the news.<\/p>\n
