#UFCSacramento Wow! Aspen goes down after one punch and the fight is called off! Early stoppage? The fans are not happy.

I'd be more outraged about the stoppage if it didn't look like Ladd was going to die on the scale yesterday

— Dave Doyle (@davedoylemma) July 14, 2019

Wtf? Can we just get rid of the refs and actually let the fighters I don't know… fight!? #UFCSacramento

Great right hand by Germaine but stopped little early there. I understand it but when you see ladds reaction she’s still there and was still moving

My dude Bisping burying Herb to the crowd. Legend.

Germaine with the hard cross that drops Aspen but then Herb steps in as Aspen turns to face. Not a great stoppage
