Rafael Fiziev Suffers Knee Injury To Cut Main Event Short
1 year agoRafael Fiziev was unable to get back in the win column, as he suffered a knee injury and a TKO loss in the second round of the main event against Mateusz Gamrot at UFC Vegas 79. What promised to be an enthralling lightweight showdown came to a halt prematurely when a blocked kick sent Fiziev to the canvas in pain. In 7:03 of action, Fiziev landed 18 significant strikes. Prior to the fight, Fiziev was 6-1 in his last seven UFC outings and had recently suffered a loss at the hands of Justin Gaethje at UFC 286. Fiziev is facing a long layoff, as he'll need some time to recover from the knee injury.
