AN Mma Fighter got a brutal introduction to her pro career after being battered AFTER she tried to give up.
Madaline Meacham suffered a suspected broken jaw, with reports her retainer was cracked by a punch.
After taking the hit, she tried to continue for a while before backing off and verbally submitting to the referee.
But unbelievably the official seemed to invite opponent Pauline Macias to continue her assault after not believing Meacham.
He called off the bout soon later but not until the stricken fighter had taken several more unnecessary shots.
The commentator insisted: “That’s a broken jaw, I bet you. I’m willing to bet you that’s a broken jaw.”
Meacham was competing in the LFA in what was her first pro MMA fight.
The UFC have released a new title strap called 'The Legacy Belt' – but fans are not pleased with the reveal.
MMA's flagship organisation is moving from Fox Sports to ESPN, America’s biggest sports network channel.
Upon the change of station, the UFC have marked the switch with a new title belt.
From comparisons to old WWE belts, to accusations of how much the title cost, fans have made it clear they don’t like the new design.
One said: "I like the ideas and the left and right plates, but the main, center plate isn't good. Looks like Toys R Us."
