Why do most fighters have ears that are weird looking please no stupid answers?

Answer 1

The condition is called "Cauliflower ear"...........a result of getting punched in the ears..........

From Wikipedia...

"Cauliflower ear is a condition common among rugby players, boxers, martial artists and wrestlers. If the external portion of the ear suffers a blow, a blood clot or other fluid may collect under the perichondrium. This separates the cartilage from the overlying perichondrium that is its source of nutrients, causing the cartilage to die. When this happens, the outer ear becomes permanently swollen and deformed, thus resembling a Cauliflower.

Headgear that protects the ears is worn in many martial arts and contact sports to help prevent this condition."

For the same reason most mechanics have large knuckles. They take a lot of abuse. The ears get hit and develop scar tissue, Mechanics are always getting cut on the knuckles & they get the same scar tissue but in a different place. I'm the mechanic so speak from experience. Cauliflour ears are a result of long-term abuse and have been written and talked about as long as there has been a fight game. I'm actually surprised you needed to ask this question.

It's scar tissue that builds up in the cartilage of the ears after it gets injured. Sometimes they wear helmets just to prevent the ears from getting hit so that this won't happen. They call it "Cauliflower Ear" too.
