GRAPHIC: Fighter has ear nearly ripped off during title bout at Taura MMA 10

Sometimes things just get more violent and gruesome than expected in an MMA fight.

In Just 25 seconds into last Friday’s Taura MMA 10’s co-main event, Ary Farias became the new interim bantamweight champion when he took Johnny Campbell down and landed a grazing elbow to his opponent’s head. While not too powerful, the strike nearly ripped off Campbell’s ear and led to an unexpected TKO victory for the submission specialist.

On Twitter, Taura MMA shared a video of the fight-ending sequence, which also shows the graphic injury Campbell suffered. Warning: Viewer discretion is advised.
