AUSTIN TURPIN has been left looking unrecognisable after suffering a severely swollen eye in a brutal defeat.<\/p>\n

The Power Slap star faced devasting injuries after his bout against Ron 'Wolverine' Bata in a light heavyweight championship on Dana White's slap fighting show.<\/p>\n

Turpin and Bata exchanged slaps around the face for five rounds last Wednesday in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

The first round featured a fierce strike from Turpin and a decent blast from Bata, but the following round saw things get heated.<\/p>\n

In the next round, \u2018Turp Daddy Slim\u2019 delivered a humiliating blow as he aimed to overthrow the light heavyweight champion Bata.<\/p>\n

But Bata returned with a painful slap nearly forcing Turpin to be knocked out.<\/p>\n

And the third round repeated a similar story before the 28-year-old tempted to turn things around as he struck the 'Wolverines' face.<\/p>\n

Neither of the fighters was able to secure a knockout blow and the judges ranked the match 48-47, 48-47, 48-47 in favour of Bata who retained his title.<\/p>\n

Just days after the defeat, Turpin shared on an Instagram post the horrific aftermath of what the fight had done to his face.<\/p>\n

The gruesome result of taking five slaps to the face left Turpin's head massively swollen with severe bruising forcing his eye shut.<\/p>\n

Despite his defeat, the American will painfully recover and likely head straight back into the ring to compete again in White's controversial slap-fighting show.<\/p>\n
