Referee injures knee at UFC 324

    NSAC referee Mark Smith reportedly suffered a knee injury while officiating a middleweight bout at UFC 324.

    Video from the arena shows him stumble at the final horn and later being carried backstage after the Ateba Gautier vs. Andrey Pulyaev fight.

    UFC CEO Dana White said the issue appears to be an ACL injury, though that diagnosis is still being confirmed.

    If the ACL is torn, Smith could be sidelined for several months; a minor strain would shorten the recovery timeline.

    He briefly remained to raise the winner's hand before leaving the cage, and further updates are reportedly forthcoming.
