According to Dan Rafael of espn.com, WBC Welterweight champion Andre Berto slightly tore a bicep muscle in his eighth round stoppage win over Carlos Quintana this past Saturday in Sunrise, Florida.
“But my tendons are still intact as they can see,” Berto said. “So I am gonna have to ice it and rest for a few weeks so the swelling can go down [and] then start rehab.”
“But the doctor said it should be fine,” Berto said. “Not a serious tear, just needs time to heal.”
The report indicated that Berto would need six to eight weeks to recover.
