Malcolm Gordon knew his fight with Denys Bondar was over after a submission attempt in the first round.
Gordon and Bondar met on the preliminary portion of UFC Vegas 47, where the bout was quickly taken to the ground by the promotional newcomer. While on his back, Malcolm ‘X’ went to work and threatened with a few armbar attempts, which ‘Psycho’ was able to get out of. Although he escaped, those attempts proved to be far more damaging than previously thought. A scramble alongside the fence revealed that Bondar had been injured after posting his left arm on the canvas and it appeared to collapse under its weight.
