The UFC visited London for the second time this year Saturday, treating British fans to the surprisingly deep UFC Fight Night 208 card. But unlike its predecessor, UFC Fight Night 204 in March, Saturday's card did not exactly blow the roof off the host O2 Arena.
The most disappointing moment of the night occurred in the main event, when No. 4-ranked heavyweight contender Curtis Blaydes took on the UK's Tom Aspinall, the division's No. 6 contender. It was a fight that could have ended any number of ways. The ending we got was one of the worst possible, as Aspinall was ruled out of the fight with a flukey knee injury just 15 seconds into the first round—seemingly the product of a leg kick gone wrong.
