Accidental headbutt ends bout
Imavov and Chris Curtis fought to a no contest (accidental headbutt) at 3:04 of Round 2 at UFC 289 on Saturday in Vancouver.
ANALYSIS
It was clearly accidental, but that's not going to make Imavov feel any better in a fight in which he was cruising. Nassourdine was using his massive size advantage to pick Curtis apart on the feet. He also landed 3-of-4 takedowns, becoming the first fighter to get Chris to the mat in his UFC career. It was all coming together for Imavov midway through Round 2, at which point he pushed forward for a combination and the two clashed heads, leaving Curtis badly cut and dazed and eventually causing referee Jason Herzog to call it off. It's a bad break for Imavov, who was on his was to rebounding in a major way from his unanimous decision main event loss to Sean Strickland this past January.
