Muhammad Naimov vs. Erik Silva
Round 1 – Naimov sits down Silva with one spinning wheel kick that drops him to his butt in the opening seconds. He gets back up, though, and they clinch. Naimov gets him down with a trip, and that’s it. Fight is over, looking like Silva suffered a leg injury at some point. Replay showing his left knee may have popped. That was unfortunate.
Result: Muhammad Naimov def. Erik Silva via TKO (injury) – Round 1, 0:44
