'I've cried non-stop' - Ditcheva breaks both hands again
Dakota Ditcheva says she broke both of her hands during the win over Denise Kielholtz - months after recovering from similar injuries.
Ditcheva has broken both hands again, crying non-stop following her victory over Denise Kielholtz. The 28-year-old Briton had not fought since July 2025 after breaking her left hand, and suffered a fracture in her other hand five months later. Despite comfortingly defeating Kielholtz on her return, Ditcheva contended with her hand injuries throughout the majority of the contest.
She explained to her corner that she did not disclose her injuries until leaving the cage. The good news is that she has no new breaks, but the bad news is that she will be out for a while due to her previous injuries.
