UFC President Dana White reacted to the fight between Calvin Kattar and Giga Chikadze.
“When Giga returned to the corner, I told my guys - take him urgently to the hospital. Calvin was also immediately sent to the hospital. After such an all-out war, we are obliged to check and make sure that everything will be in order with them. Our first main fight of the year became the first candidate for Fight of the Year. This is an amazing start. Before the fight, I said that people wrote off Kattar early, forgetting his battle with Holloway, and today he looked incredible. His roundhouse elbow strikes changed the course of the fight. In the first round, they fought, losing a lot of strength, and then staged a war of annihilation. Kattar is a real beast. If you look at his fights in the UFC, especially against Max and Gigi, you will understand that he is a special guy. He's a damn warrior!"
