UFC Fight Night: Kattar v Allen The UFC Vegas 63 main event came to an anticlimatic end when Calvin Kattar's knee buckled in round two due to a knee injury that he sustained in the first round. All it took for Arnold Allen was one leg kick to make Kattar go down and pick up a TKO victory. Following the fight, orthopedic sports surgeon and MMA doctor Dr. David Abbasi the nature of Kattar's injury. Abbasi is well-known for breaking down fighter injuries following UFC events. Looking at Kattar's KO, Dr. Abbasi deduced that there was a possibility that Kattar had suffered a complete ACL tear: "Look how he comes down landing in this dynamic valgus position here. His dynamic valgus positioning on the landing is very concerning for an ACL complete tear and see how he avoids putting weight on it afterwards. Anytime I see somebody landing in the position and refusing to bear weight on it, it's an ACL tear unless proved otherwise to me. " Dr. Abbasi further added that if it was indeed an ACL tear, Kattar would require surgery. The fighter has not provided any further update on the injury at the time of writing this article.
