The pivotal headliner for UFC Vegas 21 ended in unfortunate and scary circumstances tonight, after Belal Muhammad incurred a vicious eye poke.

The welterweight faced top contender Leon Edwards in the main event, who stunned Muhammad with a headkick in round one. In round two, however, Muhammad dropped to the floor in pain after taking an accidental poke to the eye. After an emotional and bloodied Muhammad was examined by the doctor, the fight was waived off.
