Joshua Van does not believe the injury that ended his fight with Alexandre Pantoja was accidental or lucky. Van explained that Pantoja threw an early low kick, which Van decided he wouldn't allow to happen again. When Pantoja attempted another kick, Van caught the leg and pushed him, at which point Pantoja broke his arm. Van expressed willingness to grant Pantoja a rematch once he heals, but emphasized he does not want to wait indefinitely. He stated his intention to remain an active champion and move forward with other challengers if necessary.
