Pic! Yair Rodriguez Suffers Nasty Eye Injury At UFC 211

5

Rising featherweight prospect Yair Rodriguez not only lost to Frankie Edgar earlier tonight (Sat., May 13, 2017) at UFC 211 live on pay-per-view (PPV) from inside American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, but he suffered a nasty injury to his left eye. "El Pantera" was absolutely butchered by Edgar on the ground and ultimately couldn't continue after the end of the second round due to doctor's stoppage. In between Rounds 1 and 2, you really couldn't even recognize the Mexican featherweight. He'll have to heal this sucker up before he rebounds later this year.
