Even elite athletes should leave certain jobs to medical
professionals.

Just one week after defending his
Ultimate Fighting Championship welterweight title against
Ian
Garry at UFC
330, Makhachev was in the corner of a longtime teammate,

Professional Fighters League athlete Magomed
Magomedov.

Makhachev tried to pop Magomedov’s shoulder back in place after an
apparent in-fight dislocation, drawing a reaction from a real
doctor online.

Dr. Brian Sutterer critiques Makhachev’s response to Magomed
Magomedov’s apparent shoulder injury

Magomedov faced former UFC bantamweight Daniel
Marcos in the latter’s promotional debut at
PFL Tampa. The Russian seemingly suffered a shoulder
dislocation and during the break between rounds, Makhachev
attempted to put it back into position.

Despite the attempt, the shoulder remained a problem for Magomedov
going into the third round and Makhachev ultimately had to call for
the fight to stop, throwing in the towel. The UFC welterweight
champ’s attempt to fix Magomedov’s shoulder drew the attention of
sports physician Dr. Brian Sutterer.

“This should be the go to reference for everything you do to NOT be
successful in putting a shoulder back,” Dr. Sutterer wrote on X,
reposting the clip of Makhachev trying to fix Magomedov’s
shoulder.
