MMA referee screams at doctors to help as former UFC star carried out of cage after sickening kick to testicles
A REFEREE screamed for help from a doctor after a former UFC star crumpled in agony from a kick to the testicles. Stricken Alexander Romanov had to be carried from the cage on a stretcher after just his second Professional Fighters League (PFL) match. 5 5 5 The Moldovan, aka King Kong, was once a top UFC heavyweight prospect. But the 34-year-old switched to a different Mixed Martial Art earlier this year. And he was closing in on a PFL heavyweight title shot when a sickening blow sent him reeling. Romanov was taking on Russian Valentin Moldavsky, 33, in Chicago. And his eye-watering fate came as early as the opening round. Romanov had been struggling to seriously trouble Moldavsky, despite landing a few of his renowned slam takedowns. And when the younger man got up, he put on enough pressure to leave King Kong tiring. Little more than 30 seconds were left in the first of the three five-minute rounds when the distressing moment arrived. The pair were grasping each other on the ropes when Romanov delivered a knee to his opponent. 5 Moldavsky returned the blow in kind - but accidentally went too low. Romanov instantly slumped to the floor, holding his groin - while his rival protested his innocence. Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford in another twist as UFC boss Dana White says he IS promoting super-fight The ref yelled for medical aid as Romanov was in obvious agony and fight fans looked on worried. Meanwhile, Moldavsky sunk to his knees, with his head down - apparently in rueful reflection The cage-side doctor dashed over to treat the stricken giant. And the doc soon confirmed the inevitable - that Romanov would be unable to continue. The 18st 13lbs wrestler was then taken away on a stretcher. It meant the bout - a PFL heavyweight tournament semi-final - was ruled a "no contest". Romanov had dazzled when winning his only other PFL fight in May, beating 40-year-old American Timothy May by submission. It left the East European well placed for a title shot - until a badly placed knee in his very next fight. 5

Forgotten Chelsea man could make dream transfer move after losing squad number
Chelsea spent £45million on Joao Felix less than a year ago but the forward was loaned out to AC Milan for the second half of last season and he appears to have no future at Stamford Bridge Chelsea flop Joao Felix could be offered a homecoming to Benfica after being stripped of his squad number at Stamford Bridge. Felix, 25, was loaned out to AC Milan for the second half of last season, scoring just three goals in 21 appearances. Milan have no interest in signing the Portugal international on a permanent basis, with Chelsea having paid a cool £45million for him last summer. After being left out of Enzo Maresca's 28-man squad for the Club World Cup in the USA and losing his No. 14 squad number to new signing Dario Essugo, Felix finds himself searching for a new club. At Benfica, the forward could go back to where it all started before he was sold to Atletico Madrid for an eye-watering £113m in 2019. It was in Madrid where his career began to spiral, having been one of the most coveted talents in world football as a teenager. Benfica are now willing to offer him a return, according to Portuguese outlet A Bola. It's said that the Primeira Liga giants are weighing up a €31m (£26.5m) bid. But agreeing a transfer fee is just one part of the equation. Felix still has a massive six years remaining on his Chelsea contract which reportedly sees him earn £130,000 per week. Face-to-face negotiations could take place as soon as Saturday evening, as Chelsea face Benfica in the last 16 of Club World Cup. Felix was somewhat of a silver lining for Chelsea during his loan spell in the second half of the 2022-23 season, playing under Graham Potter and latterly Frank Lampard, as the Blues endured a nightmare campaign. Following his move to Milan in February, it was suggested that Maresca wasn't fully behind his return to Stamford Bridge. But the Blues boss was clear when asked directly if he wanted to sign 25-year-old. "Absolutely yes, if Joao was here it's because I wanted to sign Joao," Maresca stated. "I don't know about the future, it's complicated to talk about the future. "For me, it's just about now and the reason why Joao left is because of his desire is to get more minutes. Here, since we started, he struggled to get minutes, and he wants to leave because he wants to play more minutes, it's no more than that."
