UFC hopeful Jack Becker suffers horrific broken leg which snaps in two after having kick checked by rival in MMA fight

HOT MMA prospect Jack Becker suffered a horrific broken leg in what many thought would be his final outing before signing for the UFC.

The Aussie lightweight was looking to get signed by mixed martial arts' premier promotion this past weekend at Eternal MMA in Perth.



But his hopes of competing in the octagon in the near future were cruelly delayed by nasty leg break seconds into his rematch with Aidan Aguilera.

The Eternal MMA lightweight champion's right leg snapped in two thanks to a perfect check from Aguilera.

The sickening snap echoed throughout the arena, which was left aghast as Becker collapsed to the canvas as he tried to put weight on his leg.

Becker lay on the cage floor in agony as the referee tended to him and hastily ushered in medical staff.

Another chimed in: "I know is the heat of the moment but [his] opponent should apologize for celebrating this tho."

Becker was in good spirits in the hospital and even made a joke about the premature end to the fight.

Alongside a snap of himself looking at his mangled limb, Becker wrote on Instagram: "Early stoppage."

New Eternal 155lb champ Aguilera was quick to send a message of support Becker's way, writing on Instagram: "You don't play MMA, it can be incredibly unforgiving and cruel.

"Nothing but respect for @becker.mma on how he conducts himself inside and outside the cage.

"After it happened his first concern was sitting up so he could gesture to the crowd that he was ok – took it like an absolute gangster and was able to have a laugh even before the green whistle was brought in.
