Tiktekno, 24.1/Sport1
Magomed Zaynalov has had quite a few injuries in his MMA career, but last night (Wednesday) he suffered the most serious injury of all - and it happened away from the ring, under unusual circumstances.
The Russian MMA fighter tried to save his cat, fell from the tenth floor of his apartment building, landed on a car and was rushed to intensive care.
It turns out that Zaynalov saw his cat go out the window and climb a gas pipe outside the apartment.
The MMA fighter followed him, but lost his grip and fell to the street.
He suffered serious injuries to his legs, pelvis and eye - but miraculously did not lose consciousness.
His coach told the Russian media: "We are waiting for Magomed to be able to speak and explain to us exactly what happened. He is conscious, his condition is stable and he is in intensive care. He will come out of it, I don't think he will be disabled or anything like that. As far as I understand, the biggest damage is to his legs."

Next week Zaynalov was supposed to meet Eduard Kuzminov for a fight that was obviously postponed.
"I received sad news," said his opponent.
"Magomed fell from the tenth floor and is in intensive care. Last night I was still praying that I would win the battle, but now I don't care about one battle or another. I only pray for him and hope he recovers. Life is short."
