Eddie Alvarez & Reug Reug Suffer Defeats â ONE on TNT 4 Highlights
The former UFC and Bellator champion was hoping to quickly bounce back from being disqualified in his last fight.
For those that donât remember, Alvarez was thrown out of his last fight.
âThe Underground Kingâ was dominating Iuri Lapicus early before a couple of his punches hit the back of his opponentâs head.
The Moldovan was unable to continue despite a lengthy time out.
The result was recently overturned and now appears as a no-contest on both menâs records.
Just a few week later, Alvarez was back in Singapore to fight Ok Rae Yoon at ONE on TNT 4.

It s been a wild month for Alvarez.
He faced No. 2-ranked Iuri Lapicus on ONE on TNT 1 less than three weeks ago and looked to be in prime position to defeat him and earn a title shot against Christian Lee. That all came crashing down when The Underground King was controversially disqualified for punches to the back of the head. An emotional Alvarez, concerned for Lapicus health, was clearly distraught after the match.
Then earlier this week, ONE announced that the match had officially been changed to a no contest, removing the loss from Alvarez s record. ONE s statement said that a panel unanimously validated that illegal strikes to the back of the head occurred, but also ruled by majority that a procedural misstep occurred after the second strike to the back of the head.
