Gegard Mousasi kept his UFC win streak alive Saturday night at UFC 210, though not in the way he would have liked.
Mousasi scored a second-round TKO victory over former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman in a contest riddled with controversy, as a mixture of bad officiating, archaic instant replay rules, and a New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) still very much in its MMA infancy coalesced into an outcome that left neither fighter pleased.
The trouble arose midway through round two when Mousasi hurt Weidman with a salvo of knees to the head that referee Dan Miragliotta believed to be illegal.
