Why are some cuts on the face considered career ending? Some look tiny and you'll hear announcers say 'yeah it looks small but those are the possible career enders'. While you see other fighters get HUGE slices where you can see underlying muscle and bone and they are fine. I've heard everything from scar tissue, to nerve damage, to there is no such thing as a career ending cut. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

scar tissue...if you get cut espicially on a boney brow, it makes the chances for another cut much higher and in turn could hinder their career, i wouldnt say career ending though...Nick diaz had his brows shaved done i believe to help reduce the scar tissue in that area and help prevent another fight of his from being affected by a cut.
