Shouldn't speculate about serious sh*t like this, but heard the bullet hit his hand. Hope I've heard right and his injuries aren't too serious.
That means nothing. They cuff you to make sure you can't leave and they would do that if he wasn't even conscious. Depends on the place.
In terms of his career, the hand could be among the worst places (other than a life-threatening shot to an organ) he could've been hit.
Remember the rapper in Sopranos who pays Bobby to shoot him because he wants the publicity/street cred? Maybe Farmer got creative with getting some headlines so he can secure bigger fights? Then again, a hand injury wouldn't do his career much good. Jokes aside I hope the kid is alright and this doesn't affect him long term. A very entertaining fighter with a lot of potential and theres plenty of interesting opponents in his division. Get well soon Tevin.

No broken bones. Doesn’t seem to be muscle or ligament damage, but he needs to see a specialist later in the week when swelling goes down.” Tevin was about to get dressed to come from Philly to NY, to watch bouts at Barclays Center. A beef occurred, and Tevin was present. He was in “peacemaker” mode, Dibella was told. The mother told the deal maker that authorities had left her residence after a Sunday visit and told her that her boys wouldn’t be facing charges.
