Kevin Randleman’s Staph Infection Picture
By CagE | October 30, 2007
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Kevin Randleman was hospitalized with a life threatening staph infection. The super athletic former collegiate wrestler has been plagued by injuries over the years. In 2005 he had major surgery to fix a fungal lung infection that he was fighting with for years.
Kevin spent three weeks in the hospital and was released two weeks ago. After having a look at that picture I could only assume that it was painful, Kevin offered this: “I was in critical condition for almost three weeks and I am two weeks out of the hospital now.” He continued, “pain is just part of the healing, and it hurts a lot.”
“I had two organs shut down again. I think what I need to do is stop enduring the pain and go see the doctors earlier.”
Here’s the PRIDE FC fight where Randleman dropped Fedor Emilianenko on his head.

First of all, those are some disgusting pictures.
Fedor is the man for taking that suplex and working his way to victory in less than a minute later. He had to have gotten hurt, anyone know if Fedor suffered an injury from that slam?
I know when I first started rolling and didn’t know anything about protecting myself, a guy rolled me onto my neck like that and it hurt like hell, herd a little pop too. So I can’t even imagine being slammed onto my head.

[...] This has not been a good year for Kevin Randleman. It was just under 365 days ago that Kevin got busted for using animal or corpse urine for his Pride US fight. Since then, half his organs shut down, he got arrested for a laundry list of offenses, and now to top it off he just had the world’s nastiest case of staph. [...]
