Last night (Sat. November 16, 2019) things didn’t go according to plan for Artem Lobov.
The former UFC star battled fellow former UFC 145-pounder Jason “The Kid” Knight in the Bare-Knuckle FC 9 main event. Knight looked great all night, before finally putting Lobov away in the fifth and final round. “The Russian Hammer’s” eye was already swollen shut before the finish.
Now, Lobov’s good friend and teammate, Conor McGregor, has taken to Instagram to offer his reaction to Lobov’s defeat last night. Here’s what “Notorious” had to say.
“Artem Lobov! What a warrior. What a journey this has been mate. What a journey this is!
“You blow me away bro, from the world tours to the ultimate fighter to this! You deserve the world and more my brother! Congrats on another amazing fight! What a story!
Brothers for life mate. Congrats to Jason Knight. Amazing warrior. Great fight. say.”
Congrats to Jason Knight. Amazing warrior. Great fight.Now, Lobov and Knight are one apiece in their BKFC careers. Last night’s main event was a rematch from their initial fight in April of last year. Lobov took the first meeting via decision. Now, with Knight’s TKO win, both men have verbally agreed to a rematch down the road. It’ll be interesting to see how soon a trilogy develops.
