WARNING: Pretty nasty stuff!
British fighter Jack Mason won’t be forgetting his latest fight anytime soon. He lost his fight by first-round TKO against Hakon Foss after suffering a horrific cut above his eye. Mason was competing at Cage Warriors 93 in Gothenburg, Sweden. A knee to Mason’s head is believed to have caused the deep wound.
Following the loss former UFC fighter Josh Maguire tweeted a video of Mason’s injury:
“Warning this is up there with some of the worst cuts I’ve seen in MMA,”
Warning: Video contains explicit footage of injury:
