UFC featherweight Nik Lentz showed a video of a brutal eye injury he sustained after being poked in the eye by Arnold Allen at UFC Raleigh.<\/p>\n

Lentz lost a unanimous decision to Allen on the undercard of UFC Raleigh<\/a>. He took a ton of damage in the fight but was able to tough it out and go the full 15 minutes despite his face wearing it. However, what ultimately hurt him the most was that he was poked in the eye by Allen, and his eye is in bad shape because of it. Despite the severity of the injury, Allen was not deducted a point by the referee for the infraction.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, the day after the fight, Lentz took to his social media to post a video of himself wearing an eyepatch. He then takes off the eyepatch and shows off his eye, which is closed shut. He then pries it open to show a bloody eye.<\/p>\n
