“My body feels perfect, the only thing is my eye,” Cortes-Acosta told Hablemos MMA (transcribed by MMA Junkie). “I still feel a lot of discomfort on my eye. Once the acetaminophen wears off, it feels like I have something in my eye and I have to do the process again, and put in the eye drops the doctor game me. But all in all good. I went to the doctor this morning and the doctor told me everything is looking good in terms of recovery. I do have a cut behind my eyelid, my eye is scratched, and on top of the eye I’m having inflammation.”
“It’s night and day,” Cortes-Acosta continued. “When I was driving back home, every 30 minutes, I would feel pressure and a lot of pain. It was like in the fight, when I knocked him out, and I did a big effort, that’s when I felt a pain and I dropped to the ground. I just need to rest now, let the days go by. I’m going to see another specialist on Thursday to see everything is matching the way it is supposed to, everything is healing correctly, and we take it from there. I’m seeing someone who specializes more internal damage to see how everything is going.”
