Snapped legs, nasty eye scrapes, protruding bones, life-threatening traumatic brain injuries – the list goes on and on of injuries fighters suffer inside an MMA cage. However, what amateur fighter Hunter Boone endured Saturday at a regional event – Martial Combat League 3 in Shawnee, Okla. – isn’t something that happens often, or seemingly ever, for that matter. WARNING: This story contains graphic images and subject matter. According to various social media posts from those in attendance at FireLake Arena and an additional witness account acquired by MMA Junkie, Boone’s fight against Jordan Brown ended 17 seconds into the first round when he crashed into the cage and suffered a massive laceration (h/t MyMMANews ). The fight was ruled a TKO and Brown was declared the winner.
