Low kick cuts Als' leg down. Hooker kicks him in the groin and Al was on a single. Ref was gonna step in. Iaquinta had to yell him off. Hooker sprawls him out and lands hard elbows. #UFC243

@ufc you have to vanish low kick to knees & low leg!
To much injury for fighters !!

So… as a sport… we’re just gonna keep calf kicking eh? That’s what we’re doing eh?

Great opening round for Dan Hooker in the co-main event. Those low calf kicks are looking painful.
