At the Glory 42 kickboxing event in Paris on Saturday, welterweight Harut Grigorian, for whatever reason, turned his back on Murthel Groenhart. Groenhart then unleashed a VICIOUS knockout punch to Grigorian’s face. The suckerpunch was not illegal, but it wasn’t exactly sportsmanlike either.

A group of fans, clearly believing this was a cheapshot, stormed the ring. Groenhart caught a haymaker to the face:

“Some guy caught me with a hook to my face,” Groenhart said on the broadcast, via MMA Fighting. “I got my guard up. With those hands without gloves, it came through to my chin and my teeth. I think it’s broken [jaw], I don’t know. It hurts.”
