When hundreds of pounds of muscles collide, shit happens. Broken hands, busted faces, it’s all part of the game… But here are some nasty injuries that you don’t see every day.

The fighter injuries you’re going to see on the next few pages are not for the faint of heart, but if you had a faint heart you wouldn’t be here in the first place. There’s your fair warning, now enjoy…

Jamie Varner’s jacked ankle

In this fight, Jamie busted his ankle really badly but that didn’t stop him from soldiering on. Dude’s as tough as they come. For the rest of the round, anytime he’d put pressure on his leg it would immediately buckle, but he wasn’t about to throw in the towel. No, he didn’t end up winning the fight, it was ruled a TKO. It should have been a doctor’s stoppage, but the doctor must have been busy checking out Arianny’s Instagram during this bout.

Mike Barreras’ disgusting eye

This is just nasty. Mike hasn’t fought since this brutal eye injury that happened at the Bellator promotion in the summer of 2013. Before that, he had strung together an even record of 5-5 at smaller local promotions. Needless to say, he didn’t take home the W that night. This image of his career-ending injury will make you glad that you aren’t an MMA fighter.
