UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez has undergone shoulder surgery and is now recovering in hospital.

According to his management at Zinkin Entertainment, doctors said the surgery “went really well.”

At time of writing, Velasquez was said to be “still asleep in recovery”.

The operation was undertaken to repair a badly damaged rotator cuff injury sustained in the title-winning fight against Brock Lesnar.

Velasquez is looking at around six to eight months recovering and rehabilitating the injury before he returns to the cage.

In the meantime the UFC has ruled out implementing an interim heavyweight title and instead ex-champion Lesnar and leading contender Junior Dos Santos will face off as rival coaches on The Ultimate Fighter.

They will fight in the summer as an end to the season and the winner will go on to challenge Velasquez for the title.

UFC Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez today (Jan. 17) Tweeted (http://twitter.com/cainmma#) a health update following his recent surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff that is expected to keep him out of the Octagon until late 2011.

And while most post-op patients are at home watching television and eating ice cream, the undefeated American Kickboxing Academy (AKA) star is already back in the gym:

"Surgery went well. Back at Joe Grasso's lifting legs . Best place to train"
After making it look easy against his first seven opponents, Velasquez scored a "Knockout of the Night" against mixed martial arts legend and former Pride Heavyweight Champion Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, securing himself an October 2010 title bout opposite division champion Brock Lesnar at UFC 121 in Anaheim.

Four minutes and twelve seconds later, the pasty-faced ex-WWE star was officially dethroned.
