Muay Thai fighter suffers HORRIFIC injury as his nose is spread across his face by uppercut… leaving fans in shock and ‘wishing they hadn’t seen’ the blow

A Muay Thai fighter suffered a gruesome nose injury in a fight at the weekend.

Shayan Heydari was lining up in a bout against Por Tor Thor Petchrungruang but disaster stuck midway through the second round.

As Heydari looked to defend himself, Petchrungruang caught him with a huge uppercut which completely displaced Heydari’s nose from its usual position.

 

However, the horrific injury somehow didn’t knock the Iranian out as he shielded a continued onslaught of punches from his opponent before sinking to his knees.

Heydari then received urgent medical treatment before Petchrungruang was declared the winner of the bout by virtue of a technical knockout.

Another added: ‘OMG, muay thai is more brutal than MMA,’ before a further astounded supporter said: ‘My eyes started watering just watching this.’

An extra fan said: ‘Ouch!!,’ while another chimed in and added: ‘Buddy won’t be smelling anything for a bit.’

Even the commentator of the fight said at the time: ‘He just sent his nose… to another dimension I must say!’
