UFC 251 in Abu Dhabi has been a stacked card that has lived up to the hype, with a number of great fights after a very rough start to the night, which included some horrific kicks to one poor fighter’s groin.
One of the funniest parts of the night, however, came courtesy of a UFC security guard who was seen walking fighters to the Octagon. Nobody knows who this man is but he stole part of the show tonight, especially while walking out featherweight champ Alexander Volkanovski for his fight against former champ Max Holloway.
Volkanovski is 5-foot-6 and this giant security guard was a lot taller:
UFC fans had fun with it:
I don't know who the security guy is towering over everyone, but he's like he's Tina from Deuce Bigalow.https://t.co/OgbfssV8i5
