Miguel Torres: UFC Fighter's Gym Sees Worst Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Injury Ever?
By Bleachersreport
There are injuries, and then there are INJURIES.
A cut like the one Miguel Torres has in the above image is an injury; what happened at Torres' gym over the weekend...well, that's an INJURY!
Torres, a UFC fighter, runs his own gym in Hammond, Ind., called Torres Martial Arts Academy. On Sunday he took to Twitter to post what he referred to as the "Worst BJJ injury to ever happen at my gym."
The picture that Torres posted on his Twitter account (found on the next slide) surely goes under the "INJURY" heading.
Torres was not using hyperbole when he said the injury was the "worst." The foot of Parish Rilentlis is a sight to behold and definitely not something for the squeamish to see.
Following the posting of the pick Rilentlis' Twitter account was besieged by tweets from well-wishers and those wanting to know how the injury occurred.
Rilentlis tweeted, "happened while sparring rolling out of a position and I heard a pop..thought it was dislocated..a pic is worth a 1000 words."
Later, he added, "I know it looks terrible but my surgery went well."
Again, be warned, it's not pretty!
