Former heavyweight title challenger Shane Carwin took a three-round beating in his bout with Junior dos Santos, and he will have a lot of scars to show for it.

Carwin, who is known for being a 40-hr workman outside the cage, looked as if he took 40 punch combination to the face, and the photo doesn’t hide anything.

It wasn’t pretty, and the brutal massacre left him with numerous cuts under both his eyes and around his nose. He was bleeding from the mouth and the nose for the majority of the bout.

There have been several gruesome looking images of post-fight faces this year, and Carwin’s face definitely makes the list, surpassing some but not all of them.
