MMA STAR Grigoriy Ponomarev suffered a brutal broken leg during Friday night's ACA 161 event in Moscow.
Ponomarev's heavyweight bout with Mukhamad Vakhaev served as the evening's co-main event.
The fight lasted just 40 seconds, being cut short by a devastating injury.
Ponomarev, 28, began proceedings by pinning his opponent up against the cage.
He then shot for a takedown, only for disaster to strike.
After being denied the takedown Ponomarev stumbled to the side, with his leg buckling under his weight and twisting at a gruesome angle.
