Mixed martial arts promotion Invicta FC was in Kansas City, Missouri earlier this week to host another interesting night of fights. This time around, however, one competitor suffered a serious injury to her hand. Now a video of the fighter weeping over the broken bone is making its way around the internet.
Invicta FC 29 went down Friday, May 4, inside the Scottish Rite Temple. The night’s headliner featured a war for the vacant bantamweight title between Sarah Kaufman and Katharina Lehner.
In another fight on the night’s card, bantamweight Julia Avila made her big Invicta FC debut against Marciea Allen. Allen would ultimately earn a TKO victory via injury over her opponent after smashing Avila’s hand with a kick.
The strike landed at a strange angle on Avila’s hand, breaking the fighter’s finger. Avila suffered a compound fracture from the blow, with part of her bone sticking out of the skin due to the break.
Now Avila has come forward with a statement and reveal of the injury. The tear heavy response to the difficult loss can be seen within the video above.
