Boxing Champ Ruann Visser Injured When Ring Ropes Snap, Insane Video

1:13 PM PT -- New video of the fall has emerged ... and it shows Visser tumbling over the top rope and hitting a table before he crashed into the ground.

This morning in Cape Town, South Africa, heavyweight Ruann Visser (18-2, 17 KO’s) was set to face Tian Fick (8-0, 5 KO’s) for the SA heavyweight title. Visser was injured when the ropes gave way and he fell out of the ring - canceling the bout. Thanks to @thomask892 pic.twitter.com/IGEfCObvFX

The good news is it appears the fighter did NOT hit his head -- at least directly -- in the fall.
