Conor McGregor had his say on Derek Anderson’s broken nose at Bellator 258
Derek Anderson was left with a broken nose after just one round against Michael Page at Bellator 258. A nasty kick from Page to Anderson’s face had his nose shattered, making it appear as if it had a crater when viewed from the side.
Despite Anderson staying on his feet, the fight was called off after round 1 due to a doctor stoppage, and Anderson was finished by means of strikes for the very first time in his career.
Post-fight, Anderson was appreciated for his toughness, with Page too praising Anderson’s toughness.
Elsewhere, ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor reacted to the ‘Venom’s’ incredible leg kick TKO. He re-shared Page’s clip showing his KO to his story, posting just a single word – “SHOT.”
The Irishman also tagged Audie Attar’s Paradigm Sports of which both McGregor and Page are a part.
