Guillermo Rigondeaux suffers eye injuries in pressure cooker accident at home Guillermo Rigondeaux reportedly only has 20 percent of his vision after a pressure cooker exploded in his face at home in Miami, according to El Nuevo Herald. The 41-year-old fighter “underwent several tests,” manager Alex Bornote said, with early hopes that it’s just a retina injury, and that the tissue will regenerate and Rigondeaux will be able to make a full recovery. https://mobile.twitter.com/CarlosToroMedia/status/1499817118774272000?ref_src=twsrc^tfw|twcamp^tweetembed|twterm^1499817118774272000|twgr^|twcon^s1_&ref_url=https://s9e.github.io/iframe/twitter.min.html1499817118774272000
Jesus. Hope he recovers. His career is most likely over, but I hope he recovers for his general vision.
Fuck pressure cookers. Seriously, i wouldn’t touch one with a ten foot pole. I remember growing up watching my mom cook vegetables in a big ugly cast iron pressure cooker. She warned me how the thing on top was meant to relieve pressure, and if it stopped whistling that meant it was either not cooking… or jammed and about to explode. I thought to myself ‘why the FUCK are you risking our lives putting a bomb in the middle of the house just for the purpose of making already tasteless vegetables into mushy putrid crap’.
