Raulian Paiva's Outrageously Gross Eye Cut at UFC Uruguay is Truly a Sight to Behold
By Sam Dunn
Is that...is that Raulian Paiva's brain? Like, out there and exposed for all to see?
Well, no. That's not what occurred. But what actually did take place during prelim action against Rogerio Bontorin at UFC Fight Night Montevideo on Saturday was a vicious, visceral spectacle. If this isn't your Eye Cut of the Year in mixed martial arts, I don't know what is.
A horrid cut to Raulian Paiva led to a Rogerio Bontorin TKO win via doctor stoppage #UFCUruguay

Are you surprised that the referee decided that this fight couldn't continue? No. You aren't. Bontorin busted Paiva's dome wide, WIDE open. You have to call it by TKO. No more, man. That knee was just too much.
The knee that caused the cut landed flush!#UFCUruguay pic.twitter.com/V9FGxyiKcH

Hey, if Boss Man Dana likes it, it can't be such a bad thing.
Best loss ever, Raulian. Right?
