Alonzo Menifield may have won a tough fight at UFC Seattle, but his post-fight injury was the biggest surprise of the night. UFC boss Dana White shared a horrific picture of Menifield’s foot following the bout, which revealed a deep and severe cut between his toes. Fans were captivated by the terrible nature of the wound, despite their fear of its seriousness. While Menifield persevered throughout the fight, the injury raised serious doubts about how it happened in the first place, as we certainly didn’t notice it at all!

Julius Walker dominated the pace early in the light heavyweight fight, forcing Menifield to defend with hard clinch work. ‘Atomic,’ known for his knockout power, struggled at times but still managed to land big strikes. As the fight went on, both men surely showed signs of fatigue, but Menifield emerged victorious via split decision. However, what was supposed to be a celebration rapidly devolved into chaos as the head honcho of the biggest MMA promotion in the world shared the awful state of Menifield’s foot that had been butchered.

Despite the setback, Menifield proved his toughness by fighting through what we can only imagine to be excruciating pain. Now the focus is on his recovery and whether this injury would cause him to take a break from sport. Foot injuries can be complicated, and at times they may keep fighters away for a long time. If the cut is serious enough to necessitate stitches, Menifield may be sidelined for an extended amount of time.

But for now, all fans can think about is how brutal the gash really is. In fact, as soon as Dana White shared the picture on social media, fans were quick to let their thoughts known. While many were simply shocked, several others played detectives to try and find out the cause. So, what did the MMA world have to say? Let’s find out!
