Arnold Allen did what he had to do, but because of circumstances outside his control, he may not reap the rewards of his efforts.
Allen stopped Calvin Kattar eight seconds into Round 2 on Saturday at Apex on the UFC campus in Las Vegas to score a TKO victory in their featherweight clash in the main event of UFC Vegas 63.
Allen started a bit slow, but was blistering Kattar with straight left hands in the second half of the opening round. He hit Kattar with one of those lefts late, and Kattar backed into the cage. He landed awkwardly on his right leg and went down to the canvas in obvious pain. But Allen blasted his leg with a calf kick to open the second and basically kicked Kattar’s leg out from underneath him. Referee Herb Dean jumped in to halt it just a few seconds later.
