The PFL Champions Series: Road to Dubai witnessed a dramatic injury as Mostafa Neda experienced a severe arm break after a front kick from Haider Khan. The incident occurred early in their middleweight fight, with Neda attempting to block the kick, resulting in a catastrophic injury. Moments later, the fight was called off for Neda, who faced immediate medical attention. This incident harkens back to previous high-profile MMA injuries, highlighting the risks the athletes face. Haider Khan's victory improved his record to 9-1 while Neda faced a setback, dropping to 9-4.
Moments later, he was splayed out on his back in pain. Thankfully, both the ref and Khan were aware the fight was over, and no unnecessary damage was delivered.
Not for the faint of heart. #PFL #RoadToDubai
While Frank Mir snapped a couple of arms off submissions during his time in the sport, it's been a while since we've seen an arm break off a kick at a major MMA event.
Cung Le breaking Frank Shamrock's arm back in the day comes to mind.
