There was a potential fight-ending moment during Alexander Volkanovski vs. Max Holloway 3 at UFC 276 this past Saturday.
The UFC featherweight champion opened up a gruesome cut directly above the left eye of the challenger with a right hand in the second round. The cut bled profusely, and its depth and width were concerning enough to potentially warrant a doctor’s stoppage, but Holloway avoided one.
How? Dr. Brian Sutterer and Dr. David Abbasi have the answers.
Sutterer reacted to Holloway and his cut on his YouTube channel, where he explained how the cutman — Rob Monroe — properly addressed it throughout the fight.
