During the final seconds of the fight, Overeem was knocked out with a heavy right hand and suffered a gruesome gash that sliced open his lip.

The former kickboxer immediately had the cut stitched up that resulted in some intense scarring.

But just over a week later and Overeem has fully recovered with incredible pictures revealing a healed up heavyweight, with no stitches and only a tiny scar in sight.

The UFC veteran was just four seconds away from beating Rozenstruik on points and moving a step closer to the heavyweight title.

But the right hook turned the fight on its head, as gruesome footage showed a large chunk of flesh flapping up as the Hounslow-born fighter was sent tumbling to the canvas.

Despite the stunning KO and horror cut, Overeem insisted he was not a beaten man.
