Those with a weak stomach should avoid Dana White’s Instagram account for the time being.

On Monday, the UFC president posted a pair of graphic photos of welterweight champion Kamaru Usman’s hand surgery. Usman suffered a broken hand prior to facing Colby Covington at UFC 268 this past November, but “The Nigerian Nightmare” was nonetheless able to defend his crown with a five-round unanimous decision at Madison Square Garden in New York.

“Pound-for-pound the best fighter in the world [Kamaru Usman] had hand ligament surgery today,” White wrote. “This is the before and after. See you soon champ.”

Usman's manager, Ali Abdelaziz told ESPN that the fighter is targeting a return at UFC 276 on July 2, which is part of the promotion's International Fight Week.

Usman is in the middle of a 19-fight professional winning streak that includes 15 triumphs in the UFC and five 170-pound title defenses. While nothing is official, Usman is expected to face Leon Edwards in his next Octagon appearance.
