Walsh did his best to defend and get back to his feet, but it wasn\u2019t long before Khizriev found his way to the back, where he locked in a body triangle. From there, Walsh tried to turn into the triangle, but Khizriev uses his legs to prevent the turn, putting Walsh into a modified twister, that forced him to tap just 2:32 seconds into the first round.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">After Khizriev let go of the submission, there was a scary few moments where Walsh appeared to be genuinely injured, laying on Khizriev\u2019s leg and grimacing in pain. Eventually, Walsh got to his feet and appears to have avoided major injury at least.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Check out the gnarly scene below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Biaggio Ali Walsh nearly had to leave PFL Austin in a wheelchair.
