The local EFC star said so far-so-good regarding his road to recovery is concerned.
Fondly known as ‘Tinkerbell’ by his fans, Kruger sustained an injury to his C4-5 and C6-7 vertebrae during a wrestling training session ahead of his EFC match-up against Darren ‘Double D’ Daniel earlier this year.
“The doctor said I would be out of action for six months but the road to recovery is feeling good,” he said.
“I’ve been doing some swimming and physiotherapy for the past three weeks and I’ve also started to do some light pad work as well.
“If everything goes good, I should be back entertaining the fans in the next six to seven months.” – @SabeloBoksburg
