Troy Gibson was on the receiving end of at least 13 blatantly illegal knees to the head last night at #CageConflict8.Shocking behaviour from his opponent, and an obviously late reaction from the ref.A horrific way for Gibson to start his pro career.

Gibson enjoyed a long amateur career entering his professional debut, winning 9 out of 11 bouts. He fought in stints in Cage Conflict and Cage Legacy as an amateur fighter before turning pro.
Kolesnikov has lost each of his first three professional bouts following the infractions at Cage Conflict 8. He also fought in his only pro kickboxing bout in 2015, losing via knockout.
It’s uncertain if an additional penalty will be given to Kolesnikov following the event. As for Gibson, his professional debut will be remembered for the egregious moment rather than his performance.
Cage Conflict 8 featured a flyweight title main event, with Gerard Burns defeating Noureddin Hezrat via first-round submission.
