There is no word on how Pliev lost his finger. It is believed he complained of Goodale holding his glove, and the referee even gave Goodale a warning. Even then, Pliev didn’t know he had lost his finger.

Pliev lost his finger in the first round but showed true fighter spirit by continuing to fight another round. Officials looked for Pliev’s finger throughout the arena. Luckily, they found it inside his glove. As per recent updates, ‘The Lion’ is already in the hospital to get his finger reattached.
