Tom Aspinall def. Serghei Spivac
Frank Mir’s long lost cousin looked amazing tonight! Light on feet, and knows when to engage and drop the power shots! Ciryl Gane like fluidity on the feet. Aspinall is one to watch!#UFCVegas36

Who wants to go into a fight, throw a jab, and get their entire knee destroyed…
— Aljamain Sterling (@funkmasterMMA) September 4, 2021
OUCH! OW! AHH! UGHH! That strike is a devastating one.

— Juan Espino El Guapo (@juan_espino_ofi) September 4, 2021
That same kick is what tore Tills knee out in his fight with Robert Whitaker. #ufcvegas36
— Julian marquez (@JMarquezMMA) September 4, 2021
I don’t care if I’m unpopular for this but that bullshit kick should be banned.

Bad form. Def legal, but bad karma https://t.co/wlRkldoeeW
— Nik “The Carny” Lentz (@NikLentz) September 4, 2021
OMG that side kick to the knee was brutal #UFCvegas36
— Thiago Moisés (@ThiagoMoisesMMA) September 4, 2021
Ahhh that technique should be banned that’s career changing
— Belal Muhammad (@bullyb170) September 4, 2021
