Really? I'm 6'1, 235. I have been through many lower body injuries. I know a little about it. Care to source where a bone heals slower for a larger person?

 

I call bull caca.

I guess they won't know if there was any collateral ligament damage also until he goes under the knife?....

 

They will know well before that point IF/and when he goes under the knife. They will do a (or another) MRI once the swelling subsides and then make a determination of the extent of the damage. Bone breaks heal very predictably as far as a time frame goes.
