It's not quite Mark Hominick levels of haematoma but this is pretty grim.
Invicta 14 lightweight Rachel Wiley (not Countdown's Rachel Riley) lost the opener of Saturday night's fight card with a TKO defeat at the hands, and elbows, of Felicia Spencer.
Wiley lasted just three and a half minutes with Spencer who earned her first professional win in Missouri.
To make matters worse, Wiley's forehead looked in absolute bits after the fight after she was left with two giant haematomas on her forehead, one over right eyebrow and one huge swelling between her eyes.
Still, she's a long way off the monstrosity sported by Canada's Mark Hominick when he came unstuck against Jose Aldo so she can feel relieved by that.
