The undercard bantamweight bout in Abu Dhabi was expected to be an exciting matchup of rising contenders and came to a halt shortly after the second round started. Basharat sent Henry to the canvas with an inside leg kick that appeared to strike across his groin.Henry's audible groans made it clear the low blow was bad, and those moans only got louder when the doctor came into the cage to evaluate him. But somehow, the medical professional had a different perspective of events.
Based on replays, it's apparent the groin kick wasn't intentional. Still, it prompted fighters to take to social media for other reasons. Aljamain Sterling wrote"Oh man," in an X post as soon as the Henry went down. He quickly followed up with a prediction:How you gonna tell the dude who got kicked in the nuts that he didn’t get kicked in the nuts ?features three anticipated events, including a rematch between lightweight champion Islam Makhachev and featherweight champion Alex Volkanovski. Hopefully, none of those matchups will see a similar finish.
