Midnight Mania! Chaos erupts at CFFC 94 when fighter’s finger is torn off and disappears

Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let me preface the following story first and foremost: this is not an April Fool’s joke.
Earlier tonight, Cage Fury Fighting Championship (CFFC) athlete Khetag Pliev competed opposite Devin Goodale. Somewhere in the second round, the 37-year-old “Lion” suffered a grotesque injury, seemingly losing a finger. In the words of commentator CM Punk, “It wasn’t a compound fracture, a break, it wasn’t a dislocation, a break, a laceration. His finger was just gone. It’s gone.”
Now that 2020 is in the books, Combat Press is taking a look back at the best that the sport of kickboxing had to offer. Over the next week, Combat Press will announce its award winners in multiple categories, covering everything from the action in the ring to the biggest stories surrounding the sport. Event of the Year

The “Event of the Year” is usually a difficult choice to make when the world of kickboxing is at it’s finest. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the landscape of the kickboxing world in 2020, the discussion looks different than in past years. There was little contention from perennial producer GLORY, which had just one of its two events in the conversation. New additions from both RISE and Wu Lin Feng make the list of contenders following the respective rise of these leagues to the top of the kickboxing landscape to fill the void left by the pandemic and the fall of GLORY and Kunlun Fight.
