Former interim lightweight champion Tony Ferguson had a night to forget at UFC 274 , held last Saturday (7th) in Phoenix. The fighter, in action on the main card of the edition, was knocked out in a devastating way by Michael Chandler , who landed a spectacular front kick in the second round of the confrontation and came out the winner.
As if the defeat was not enough, the fourth in a row within the UFC, which puts him at risk within the organization, Tony Ferguson still had and will have to deal with images of the knockout he suffered. The scene of the kick applied by Michael Chandler went around the world and had a lot of repercussions on social media. However, one in particular was mentioned a lot. The exact moment of Chandler’s kick to Tony’s chin. A photo of the moment of the blow shows Tony Ferguson with his face “deformed”, such power of the kick he received.
