Pancrase fighter Shingeyuki Uchiyama had a bout with Masaya Takita yesterday in Tokyo. He was winning the fight in the second round when during a double-leg take-down he got tangled up in the ropes with his opponent and his heavily cauliflowered ear severed. Not the entire thing but enough for the fight to be stopped. There are disgusting photos here. This is the before photo:
Re: Shigeyuki Uchiyama was winning until his ear came off Reason 97 why the octagon is better than the old fasioned ring.
