[WARNING: Graphic Photos] Grotesque scenes as CFFC fighter loses finger in the middle of a fight

There have been some serious injuries to fighters inside MMA cages, many of them more serious than a lost finger.

But nothing can send a shiver down anyone’s spine quite like the sight of a missing finger. And that is what happened, as fans were left shocked seeing Pliev without his left ring finger.

The incident happened during the fight and Pliev did not immediately notice it. He took a note of the situation only in-between rounds.

Then began the search for the missing finger, which was said to be somewhere inside the venue as it was believed to have detached itself and dropped inside his glove.
