Two fouls lead to no contest
Marcos and Aori Qileng fought to a no contest (accidental low blow) at 3:28 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It's a crushing result for Marcos in a fight in which he dominated from start to abbreviated finish. Of course, he has no one to blame but himself. Yes, the two low blows committed against Qileng were accidental, but they were both fouls. Aori appeared to be in legitimate discomfort, but he also appeared to have zero interest in continuing in a bout in which he almost certainly would have emerged with a loss. Marcos' undefeated professional record remains, but that's little solace given the fact he gave away a near-certain victory here.
