At UFC 180 this past weekend, Smith was left with a mangled ear in her fight with Jessica Eye.<\/p>\n<p>Foley, who lost part of his own right ear years ago in a wrestling match with Vader, reached out to Smith via social media to express his appreciation for what she went through. Smith, who lost the fight vs. Eye via doctor&#8217;s stoppage, saw a huge cut nearly take her left ear off. Highlights of the fight can be found in the video above, including graphic images of the injured ear.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/B2jAY3eIEAAR39g.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"298\" height=\"342\" \/>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/B2jAZHrIAAEi5IB.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"257\" height=\"342\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"expanded-content js-tweet-details-dropdown\">\nFoley Wrote:<\/div>\n<p>Dear @LeslieSmith_GF &#8211; it gets better!
