If there wasn’t an anti-DIY PSA, there is one now.

UFC featherweight Bryce Mitchell, aka “Thug Nasty,” didn’t attend MMA practice today. He had a good reason.

Mitchell (10-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC), a veteran of “The Ultimate Fighter 27,” apparently was doing a little home improvement and wound up with what has to be one of the most horrific injuries ever suffered by an MMA fighter.

Mitchell had decided to store a power drill in his pants and was sizing up a board to fasten to the ceiling when the drill turned on. It wasn’t until Mitchell reversed direction on the drill that, in his words, “untangled my nutsack but they was ripped in half.”

Via Instagram:

Mitchell took photos of the aftermath revealing boxer shorts with a huge bloodstain on the crotch. He seemed in good spirits about the whole issue, inviting well-conceived jokes rather than lousy puns.

He’ll be back to practice, he assured the world. But he needs a little time to heal up.

Because everyone loves a good horror story, Mitchell’s post went viral and caught the attention of underwear maker Me Undies, which offered to give the fighter some replacement threads.
