Nick Hein took a bad beating at UFC Stockholm yesterday (Sat. June 1, 2019).

The finish was one of many on the night in Sweden. However, Hein seems to have made his final walk to the UFC Octagon. Following his TKO defeat to Frank Camacho, Hein has announced his retirement from mixed martial arts (MMA) competition. He made the news official on his Facebook page overnight:

“20 years of Judo. Ten years in the national team. One decade of MMA, 5 years in the UFC. I am ready for the next chapter. Thanks to everyone. I am looking for the future,” Hein said.

Hein has been fighting professionally in MMA since 2009. He signed with the UFC in 2014, at one point racking up a three-fight win streak. However, after his loss to Comacho last night, Hein now finds himself on a three-fight losing skid, two coming by way of finish.

At 35-years-old, “Sergeant” has decided to walk away from the sport. The German competed at featherweight, lightweight, and welterweight over the course of his career.

A welterweight scrap kicked off the main card of UFC Fight Night 93. Following back to back victories, Nick Hein (14-2, 1 NC) looked to extend his streak to three. Tae Hyun Bang (18-10) had other plans as a win would’ve earned him his second straight victory.

In the end, it was “Sergeant” who walked out of the Barclaycard Arena in Hamburg, Germany with a win.

The bout was a bit of a feeling out process early on. Bang landed a leg kick about a minute in. Both fighters missed high kicks. Hein landed a left hook. Bang moved forward with strikes. Hein brought his opponent down and was in half guard. “The Supernatural” returned to his feet. Bang missed a hook. Hein had his high kick blocked as the round ended.

Bang landed a body kick early in the second round. Hein grabbed a body lock and looked to bring his opponent to the canvas. Bang was able to break free. A short right hand clipped Hein and had him slightly off balance. “Sergeant” got a quick takedown, but Bang reversed and did a judo throw. Bang connected with a body kick as Hein went for a hook to end the second stanza.

The two were active right away in the final frame. Bang was getting the better of the exchange early. Bang landed a body kick counter. A left hook caught Hein coming in. Time was called to check on a cut on the eye of Bang caused by an unintentional headbutt. The fight resumed quickly. “The Supernatural” and “Sergeant” traded shots. Hein staggered Bang momentarily. Hein ducked under a hook and got a trip briefly, but Bang stood on his feet. A left hand landed for Hein. Bang was countered by a left hand and the final horn sounded.

All three judges gave the fight to Hein.

Final Result: Nick Hein def. Tae Hyun Bang via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-28, 30-27)
