Victor Henry's bout against Javid Basharat at UFC 294 came to a controversial close as Henry was unable to continue after being hit in the groin.
In the second round, Basharat threw an inside leg kick that grazed Henry's groin. The pain left Henry sprawled on the canvas. After receiving a brief recovery period, the ringside doctor seemed to be in complete denial of the low blow.
However, after watching the replay, it was evident that Henry had suffered an illegal blow. The 36-year-old was unable to continue and the fight was declared a no-contest. Upon being taken backstage, the condition of 'La Mangosta' didn't improve and he was taken to the hospital after vomiting from severe nausea.

"I had my timing I was speaking to him the whole time in there and we both knew I was gonna finish him in that round 2 . I made the veteran quit. I am the boogeyman of this division. I will be appealing this ASAP !"
