Former UFC star suffers broken PENIS in training session - as fighter describes what the 'absurd pain' of horror injury feels like

Mixed Martial Arts is known for its many perils but one unlucky fighter has received the most unpleasant of injuries during jiu-jitsu training. Brazilian star Mateus Mendonca is a team-mate of ex UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira, who took his impressive record in the sport to 35-10-0 with a decision victory over American Michael Chandler last month.

The 25-year-old seemed unstoppable when he first entered the Octagon, seeing off Pedro Nobre in 2020 and Ashiek Ajim in 2022 to get off to the perfect start. But after three sobering defeats on the trot, in the bantamweight and flyweight classes, 'Bocao' was released from his contract with the company.

He recently rebounded from that disappointment with a kneebar victory over Luan Matheus within 20 seconds, taking his record in MMA to 11-3. Mendonca has now received something of a setback, however, after fracturing his penis midway through a training session in Maranhao, Brazil, MMA Fighting reports.

Former UFC fighter Mateus Mendonca has fractured his penis and will be out for two months. The Brazilian suffered the blow in training and faces a two-month spell on the sidelines. The nasty injury means that the fighter will not be able to spar for another two months, after only deciding to go to hospital once a month had passed.
