I totally agree. It will take a tone of mental strength to use that leg the way he did before. Not only throwing kicks, but checking them as well. And for a primarily kick boxer style, it may be too much.

Hopefully he can get over any hurdles in training, it would be terrible to start second guessing and hesitating mid match.
