Like being sideswiped by an 18-wheeler, Matt Riddle never saw Killian Dain’s blitz coming.

The Original Bro was entering ringside for a face-to-face fight with Dain when he suffered yet another blindside attack by The Beast of Belfast. The Northern Ireland Nightmare appeared out of the blue and cut down Riddle with the Divide, flattening the former UFC fighter on the thinly padded floor.

Referees tried halting Dain’s siege, but to little avail, as the 300-plus-pound brawler cannonballed into Riddle, sandwiching The Original Bro into the steel ring steps. Appearing wholly satisfied with the beating he dished out, Dain then exited the arena as officials tended to the reeling Riddle, making clear that the long-awaited fair fight between the two warriors would not be happening this night.
