Israeli MMA fighter Oron Kahlon calls his opponent a terrorist during weighing (Twitter)

UFC Referee Vyacheslav Kislav was expelled from UFC 267 in Abu Dhabi after not stopping a fight in which one of the fighters suffered severe blows.

Viewers, commentators and many others were stunned to see the fighter (who only recently joined) Benoit Saint Dennis suffer a brutal attack from his rival Elizo Zelsky dos Santos, in a battle in which the Brazilian winner sent 149 blows to his opponent (and suffered only 67) - and 96 of them were top.

At one point in the battle of St. Dennis he looked completely unfinished, pushed into the fence, folded helplessly while his opponent hit him, but the referee somehow did not stop the fight - even though St. Dennis suffered a long line of punches and kicks, for long seconds, unanswered.

It should be noted that the loser showed determination and strength, and did not give up, but both the broadcasters and quite a few spectators called to stop the fight already in the second round.

Dos Santos eventually won 26:29 after three rounds, but for many the big scandal was how this fight even went on.

Judge Kislav was supposed to judge more fights, but as stated was dismissed.

"Stop the fight!", Shouted commentator Daniel Cormier, "I do not know what he should do ... it's madness."

He then tweeted: "This is the worst show of judgment I have ever seen in my life. Obviously it's hard work, but the man is not real. It was hard to see it, and I hope Benoit is on his way to the hospital now."

The winning Dos Santos also admitted he had to stop the fight: "I feel uncomfortable for the guy, he was injured more than he should have been."

The issue sparked a debate, and after fighter Michael Keiza said that "the most important job of a judge is to protect the fighters," fighter Randy Brown wrote: "To continue fighting for the next fight. This man's coach does not care."

Fighter Sayer in Ahadorzadeh wrote: "Lucky St. Dennis is not dead. This judge should be permanently removed, he is a danger to the industry," while Aljamin Sterling tweeted: "The judge chose the violence."

And as expected, on social media raised allegations and suspicions that this is a "addicted" fight and that the judge's considerations were due to gambling, which of course has not been proven
