Kyle Kingsbury left England with a loss and some serious injuries. Kingsbury was defeated by Jimi Manuwa Saturday night at UFC on Fuel TV: Struve vs. Miocic.
The fight was stopped after Kingsbury could no longer see out of his left eye. However, the post-fight tests conducted by the doctor confirmed more damage than that.
"Good stoppage twitter.com/ufc/status/252…" Although I wanted a 3rd round, MRI just confirmed multiple fractures above the eye and nose. @ufc

Kingsbury later responded, posting, "Much respect to you as well (Manuwa). You hit harder than I could have expected. The fractures in my face don't lie best of luck to you."
