12:49 PM ET 01.14 | A "freak accident" put Pat Curran on the shelf. The Bellator featherweight champion suffered a fractured orbital bone during training last August, and he's finally healthy and ready to return to the cage Thursday. "It was pretty painful," Curran said. "It was my first time ever fracturing my orbital. When it happened, I really didn't know what was going on. I was instantly blind. My nose started bleeding on the same side and I pretty much lost vision for about 30 minutes. It was hard for me to see out of that eye for a while, but in time, it healed."
