Melvin Guillard is not going to be a hand model after his MMA career wraps up.
The former UFC star, who appeared in The Ultimate Fighter, shattered his hand in a Bellator 141 in a losing bout against Brandon Girtz.
Guillard (34-14-2 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) underwent surgery earlier this week and, with pins installed and his hand stitched back up, he took to Instagram to sport his new look.

The Louisana lightweight, who goes by ‘The Young Assassin’, has not given a timeframe on his return to action but should be expected to glove up again by early November.
Here is an x-ray of Guillard’s new mitt.
