Impact Nueraji looked great for the most part in his UFC debut, though it gets a bit of an asterisk due to a blatant illegal knee landed in Round 1 as Crosbie was attempting to get back to his feet. The fight could have been called there, but Crosbie elected to continue, and Nueraji was deducted two points for the foul. However, the damage was already done. Nueraji got his opponent right back down to the mat, where he landed a barrage of elbows, some of which were essentially flying elbows that started from his feet. It didn't take long before referee Marc Goddard had seen enough. Nueraji moves to 12-1 with the result.
