Tresean Gore left UFC 330 with a win, a damaged mouth and one of the toughest post-fight images of the night.
Gore defeated veteran Vicente Luque by unanimous decision on Saturday at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, but the victory came with a painful cost.
At some point during the fight, Luque landed a flying knee that knocked out multiple lower front teeth. Gore still fought through the injury, completed all three rounds and had his hand raised after the judges scored the middleweight bout 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28.
Then came the part fans will probably remember most.
During his post-fight interview with Joe Rogan, Gore was visibly holding some of his missing teeth in his hand.
What happened to Tresean Gore’s teeth?
Gore suffered significant damage to his lower front teeth during the fight with Luque.
The injury was reportedly caused by a flying knee from Luque, although Gore continued competing without allowing the damage to derail his performance.
Rather than asking out or slowing down dramatically, Gore stayed composed and fought through the full 15 minutes.
Afterward, the extent of the injury became obvious during his interview inside the Octagon.
Gore was later taken to the hospital following the fight.
