Quick read

Gilbert Burns has announced his retirement from MMA following a recent event that featured several exciting fights with multiple knockdowns and finishes. Arman Tsarukyan defeated Urijah Faber decisively by a 13-1 score and followed through on his pre-fight promise to throw him into the crowd. After the victory, Tsarukyan called out Colby Covington, promising to aim for a 10-0 decision and stating he gave Faber one point out of respect for his age but will fight with full intensity against Covington. The Guskov-Blachowicz fight was canceled but replaced with Ivo Baraniewski stepping in as the new opponent for the card. Khamzat Chimaev has signed a contract with RAF, which prompted Bo Nickal to immediately issue a challenge to the champion.
