Fans all over the world were excited for UFC 267 and the amazing fights lined up. However, it soon seemed to turn into a horror show which no one expected.

The bout between Elizeu Zaleski and Saint-Denis was nothing less than a brutal war. While the fighters did their job in the octagon, it seems the referee forgot to do so. Referee Vyacheslav Kiselev immediately got slammed on social media for doing a terrible job.

Viewers were enraged because a fault on the referee’s part can cause a lot of damage to the fighter. Former UFC champion Daniel Cormier was also angry.

While the fight was on, the commentators could be heard yelling for the bout to stop because of how brutal it was getting, and Saint-Denis was badly hurt. When Saint-Denis told the referee that he could not see after an eye poke, spectators were surprised to see that the referee did not call a doctor to examine the fighter.
