PIC: Michael Bisping lost a huge chunk of his big toe in victory over Thales Leites (GRAPHIC)

We hope that Michael Bisping wasn’t too emotionally attached to his toes because he’s now somewhat literally unattached to one of them.

The Count put forward a sublime performance as he took a split decision victory over Brazil’s Thales Leites in Glasgow and, bar a cut to the eyes of both guys, they appeared to be in pretty good nick having gone to war for 25 minutes.

But after the final bell, as pools of blood began to form on the octagon canvas, it was noticed that Manchester’s Bisping had lost a considerable chunk of his big toe.

It’s not for the faint of heart and we’re genuinely grimacing at the thought of him pulling on a pair of runners leaving the arena tonight.
