UFC on FX 8: Nik Lentz cut following win over Hacran Dias ... by attending physician

Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but Nik Lentz defeated two Brazilian fighters in 2013 -- in Brazil -- then gets "accidentally" sliced open in the arena. I see what they did there.

Ron Chenoy-US PRESSWIRE

Doh!

Streaking Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) featherweight Nik Lentz, who won his third fight in a row with a unanimous decision nod over Hacran Dias at UFC on FX 8 last Saturday night in Brazil (results here), is going to need some time off to heal a cut suffered at Arena Jaragua.

Not from "Barnabe," mind you, but rather from the doctor charged with removing his hand wraps.

I believe that was Dr. Mal P. Ractice.

Lentz blasted the "Noob" for slicing him open while removing the hand wraps and it may be the most significant damage he took in last Saturday night's (May 18, 2013) 145-pound affair. "The Carny" improves to 24-5 with the win and has likely positioned himself for bigger and better opportunities.

Assuming the medical community doesn't keep getting in the way.
