UFC Perth ‘Fight of the Night’ loser transported to hospital

Gaziev (14-3) has now dropped two straight — both via stoppage — and falls to 3-3 inside the Octagon. The Bahraini bruiser burst onto the scene in 2023, earning a contract on Contender Series before quickly making waves. He remains the only fighter to defeat Martin Buday during Buday’s UFC run (watch highlights) and was infamously fast-tracked into a main event against Jairzinho Rozenstruik, where he ultimately lost via corner stoppage.

Meanwhile, Pericic (7-1) continues his rise, improving to 3-0 in the UFC with three knockouts. With the win, he likely takes over Gaziev’s spot in the rankings.

It is not a rare occurrence for UFC to transport fighters to the hospital for precautionary reasons, especially if the fighters are involved in three-round battles full of damage. As of this writing, none of the scan results have been officially released, but stick with MMAmania.com for health-related updates.
