For anyone who wasn't sure how brutal being an MMA fighter is, look no further than this Instagram video that the UFC's Donald Cerrone recently posted, which shows a scene that is more appropriate for a scary movie than a professional athlete.
Pretty gnarly, huh?
Cerrone, who was scheduled to fight Kelvin Gastelum at UFC 205 before his opponent failed to make weight in the welterweight division, is now in line to battle Matt Brown at UFC 206 on December 10th—regardless of the current condition of his right eye.
Here's to hoping Donald Cerrone recovers in time to step into the Octagon as planned—but, if he can't lace 'em up, we'll all understand the serious reason why he can't give it a go.
