Fraud Check? Fans Slam Bilal Hasan as He Loses Unbeaten Record to Luis Gurule in Drab UFC 334 Return
Luis Gurule rallied after a fast start and handed the unbeaten flyweight prospect his first professional loss, with two judges scoring the upset for the veteran.
On Saturday, Luis Gurule defeated Bilal Hasan by split decision at UFC 334 in New York, ending Hasan's undefeated professional run at Madison Square Garden.
Entering the bout as a massive favorite, Hasan had been touted as a top prospect, while Gurule closed as a +580 underdog across major sports books.
Judges scored the flyweight opener 28-29, 29-28, and 29-28 in Gurule's favor after three rounds, with the veteran taking control in the second and third.
Popular YouTuber MMAJoey tweeted that the UFC "pushed a fraud" before commenters claimed Hasan had been "fraud checked," a phrase mocking fighters who lose unbeaten records.
This defeat marks the first professional loss for Hasan, who previously gained hype with a 45-second knockout on Dana White's Contender Series in August.
