Jakarta, CNN Indonesia – Justin Gaethje I feel sorry after hitting Tony Ferguson through TKO in the fight UFC 249, at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena, Florida, United States, Sunday (10/5) morning WIB.
The referee stopped the match in the fifth round after assessing that Ferguson suffered serious facial injuries. The Cucuy was completely mistreated by Gaethje even though he could still survive.
Gaethje himself considered that the fight should continue because the cessation of the duel instead caused controversy. Ferguson himself had protested that he was declared defeated by a technical knockout, although he was sure he could still fight Gaethje.
“I’m sorry for him [Ferguson] because if he were in his position, it would be very annoying. We have come to this battle desperately ready. “
“I said to the coach, ‘You certainly won’t like this, but I’m ready to die tonight.’ That’s the mindset you have to have in this fight,” Gaethje said, saying BJPENN.

Gaethje was certain, Ferguson had the same mindset to fight until one of the fighters collapsed. For this reason, the 31-year-old fighter judged his opponent to protest after being declared defeated by the TKO.
However, the referee certainly has his own considerations to protect UFC fighters from fatal risks in the fight.
Also, Gaethje and Ferguson are known as fighters with brutal attacks. That situation can lead to great risks.

Ferguson himself was forced to be transferred to the hospital due to serious facial injuries after being hit by Gaethje.
Ferguson, who was seeded by Gaethje at UFC 249, did little during the five-round battle. The Cucuy continued to be beaten by Gaethje until referee Herb Dean stopped the fight when the fifth round ran 3 minutes and 39 seconds.
