More like a broken orbital bone. Getting rocked like that tends to happen when it is a southpaw vs an orthodox fighter, especially when one of them decides to run in with their eyes closed and hands down at the waist. Nice overhand right.

Re: Career Ending Punch Knocks Fighter's Eye Out of Socket
the way i see it is its the same as how people join the army..you die, get injured badly, be the best, prove something, etc. its all a gamble and also fulfills their need to either hold a gun or be pretty good at fighting. in both cases, its an acquired discipline.. but thats just my opinion. i have done neither.

Look closer, especially right at the end of the video. You see that lump above his cheek? That's his eyeball.

No sorry, I'm still not convinced, to me it's just the immediate swelling & a cut. Unfortunately I don't have any image/video editing software installed atm to inspect the frames in more detail.  ·  · |

Re: Career Ending Punch Knocks Fighter's Eye Out of Socket
Isn't that swelling a haematoma? Very common in boxing and mma. Nasty punch  |
