The elbow was too much for the ear.
In the evening of the Russian Absolute Championship Akhmat free fight promotion, a rare injury was experienced.
Kyrgyz fighter Edil Esengulov was declared the winner when the Brazilian Vinicius Cruz the ear opened in a rude manner.
Esengulov, who was on top in the situation on the mat, delivered a hard elbow hit directly to Cruz’s “cauliflower ear”. As a result, the ear opened in a really ominous way.
The wound was so serious that the match doctor decided to stop the match. Esengulov was adjudged the winner. Holding his ear, Cruz was not happy with the decision.
You can look at the situation this link from the video on the back. Video can shock.
Cauliflower ear is an ear that has been filled and reshaped by cartilage tissue caused by blood eruptions. The problem is very typical for combat athletes whose ears get a lot of hits, for example against the mat.
Some contestants also drain blood clots from their ears.
ACA promotion has a questionable reputation. It is owned by the tyrant of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov. Esengulov and Cruz fought at the ACA 166 evening organized in St. Petersburg.
