Thursday night’s Cage Fury Fighting Championship card in Philadelphia featured some tense moments as people in the arena were asked to search for the missing left ring finger of Khetag Pliev.
“It was a surreal moment,” CFFC promoter Rob Haydak told ESPN. “I said, ‘Wait a second, where the f--- is his finger?’ They were all like, “I don't know.’”
Pliev, a 2012 Olympian in wrestling, lost his fight against Devin Goodale by referee stoppage when the ref noticed Pliev’s finger was gone. And nobody could find it. Officials searched for the missing finger for several minutes according to ESPN’s Marc Raimondi.
