This could have been so much worse.

UFC lightweight fighter Darrell Horcher (12-2) is lucky to be alive after a terrifying accident when a Jeep reportedly pulled in front of him, he hit the vehicle and was thrown 240 feet, per Fox Sports.

Horcher's manager, per the report, noted he was thankfully wearing a helmet even though there is no helmet law in Pennsylvania.

"He's grateful to be alive," Butler said about the accident when speaking to FOX Sports.

Horcher has reportedly decided to sell his bikes after suffering a broken arm, torn ligaments in his ankle and road rash. He's expected to take 6-8 months to recover, per the report.
