Went out over the weekend to watch the boxing (Usyk v Rico), got in to a silly confrontation with someone after about 12 vodkas and came away with 2 broken fingers.

Thing is they’re majorly crooked right now and I’m worried they’re never gonna straighten back up. Has anybody had any experience with this and can reassure me they’ll eventually straighten up lol.

edit: I will add they’ve been strapped together obviously since the morning after it happened. This is the first time I’ve taken the strapping off just to put a fresh one on.

Just get a new hand at this point

Depends. I hit one of my fingers with a lump hammer years ago and it isn't straight it's still bent. Depends where the break is i guess.

Both are broken towards the top half of the fingers (not the tip, inbetween the middle knuckle and tip). If you can see on the pic my little finger is sort of bent round to the right and the one next to it is twisted to the left

That's where mine is bent/twisted between the tip and middle knuckle. I think it might stay twisted unfortunately.

Nah I just watched highlights the next day since imo was a pantomime fight but in the end it turned out to be entertaining. Usyk looked like father time caught up to him but I think he was just selling the fight. Usyk is declining for sure. Probably got another fight maybe 2 left in him but they need to be this year imo. 1 towards the end of the year and probably his last around May of 2027.

No lmao. Went in about 3 different pubs and they all said they weren’t showing it. So ended up in a fourth and by the time I was tryna explain to the bar staff how to get it on the tv with the remote it was nearly over. Still haven’t watched it back fully tbh but heard about what happened.
