UFC’s Leslie Smith Nearly Loses Ear in Fight [VIDEO]

During Saturday night's UFC broadcast, the preliminary bout between Leslie Smith and Jessica Eye ended early after Eye nearly ripped Smith's ear off.

In the video above, you can see Smith take a quick right to the ear, which explodes upon contact. Referee Herb Dean quickly stopped the fight and called in the doctors, who decided that Smith could no longer fight.

Proving she's probably much tougher than most guys out there, Smith pleaded with doctors to let her continue the fight. Unfortunately, the doctors could not be persuaded.
