A UFC fighter has shared the gruesome details of how he recently injured his testicles. Amazingly, it wasn’t during a fight.
UFC fighters put their bodies on the line for their sport, the people who take part are usually in incredible shape and consistently subject themselves to cuts, bruises and broken bones.
However, who’d have thought doing a light bit of DIY would also make a UFC fighter ridiculously ripped…
Bryce Mitchell, a featherweight fighter from Arkansas, suffered such a stomach-churning injury it’ll make you think twice next time you reach for that power tool.
I’ll let Bryce explain:
so i was gunna train today but i ripped my nutsack in half. im bout to get stitched up. i was holdn a board over my head with a drill n my pants. i was sizin up the board n the drill went off n tangled my nuts up n it. i dropped the board and reversed the drill and untangles my nutsack but they was ripped n half. im serious too lol. i obviously cant post a pic. but wen my nuts r seald back up ima come train again. i think a high kick would re rip them haha. and if i hear any shitty puns bout how this whole this is nutty or screwed up i aint talked to u for bout a month. if ure gunna drop a pun to make fun of me atleast put sum thot into lol [sic]

He accompanied the detailed message with ‘Imma be out for a little bit.’ I think we can all agree on that, Bryce. Probably better to stay away from the DIY while you’re out too.
Understandably, he didn’t post any pics of his broken bits. He did, however, share a disturbing snap of his boxers. If you happen to have testicles, using your imagination accompanied by the below pic and the mere thought of a power drill will ruin your day.
Really makes you think, doesn’t it:

Probably better to just throw those out I’d say. Even if you got them clean, they’ll always remind you of your scrotal suffering.
Bryce also recognised the loss of a decent pair of underwear. It’s a tough moment when you have to say goodbye to a trustworthy pair of keks.
Replying to a concerned Ariel Helwani, Bryce wrote:
I’m good brotherman. Those were a good pair of boxers though so that sux
Luckily though, a kind and caring underwear company had Bryce covered, and after hearing of his unfortunate accident, offered to help the guy out.

Bryce recently took part in The Ultimate Fighter 27 as part of Team Cormier, where he lost in the semi-finals to Brad Katona, the eventual featherweight winner, according to MMA Fighting.
Fortunately, Bryce did not have any fights lined up at the time of his egregious injury.
We wish him a speedy recovery.
