Fighting Tarec Saffiedine is a serious hazard to your legs.

Rick Story knows all about the leg-kicking prowess of the Belgian Shihaishinkai black belt. Story defeated Saffediene via unanimous decision at UFC Fight Night 88 in Las Vegas in the early hours of Monday morning and although he outstruck, outwrestled and outworked his opponent over three rounds, he didn't walk away from the bout unscathed. Tarec leg kick story Saffiedine ripped Story with stinging inside leg kicks throughout the fight which left the top-ranked American welterweight with a very painful reminder of one of the biggest wins of his career. The "Horror Story" uploaded a photo of his thigh to Twitter directly after the fight, showing off the bruising and foot imprints from the Belgian's swift kicks. https://twitter.com/Rick_Story/status/737141838436524033 Saffiedine, who put in a very commendable performance despite the loss, congratulated the victor on social media after the fight. Meanwhile, Story is already looking for his next match-up and called out the extremely tough Matt Brown in his Octagon interview. https://twitter.com/tarecfighter/status/737155294506029058 Click snap
