DWCS 77 video: Baysangur Susurkaev 'saves' Dana White's Tuesday with gnarly TKO

“You saved my Tuesday.”

This is what Dana White told Baysangur Susurkaev after a devastating kick on Tuesday at UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Susurkaev (9-0) shot Murtaza Talha (7-2) in the median section for TKO stopping at 3:04 am from Tour 1. The average weight fight took place in the 77 series of Dana White’s Contender 77, the first of the show’s season.

Susurkaev, 24, is a training partner at Khamzat Chimaev, but also trains at the Kill Cliff FC with the training partner Gregory Rodrigues and others. He intervened with days notice for this fight and took advantage of violently.

The arrival could not arrive at a time when UFC brass is thirsty for this violence. The two previous fights to launch the season were dull decisions. Susurkaev will probably get a UFC contract as a result of its performance.
