On a night filled with crazy and unusual outcomes, the most confusing ending to a fight at Thursday’s PFL 2 card in Chicago came courtesy of lightweights Thiago Tavares and Robert Watley.

Early in round two, Watley clearly struck Tavares with a kick to the groin. There’s no grey area here, Tavares’ nether regions got bashed.

The former UFC fighter was in considerable pain, and when he attempted to get up on one occasion, he went right back down to the ground.
