Viktoriia Dudakova UFC Outburst After UFC Vegas 101 TKO Loss
Viktoriia Dudakova shocked fight fans at UFC Vegas 101 after slapping her coach following a tough TKO loss to Fatima Kline. The dramatic post-fight moment was captured on camera and quickly became a hot topic in the MMA community.
Post-Fight Slap Stuns Fans
Dudakova’s frustration boiled over after being stopped in the second round by a barrage of elbows from Kline. As she sat in her corner, one of her coaches approached her to offer support. However, instead of accepting his words, Dudakova slapped him and stepped away, visibly emotional.
“You didn’t even come over,” Dudakova shouted. “You just sat there. That’s how little you cared!”
The heated incident didn’t end there—reports suggested that the coach left the venue immediately after the confrontation.
The TKO defeat marked Dudakova’s second consecutive loss in the UFC. She previously lost a decision to Sam Hughes in August 2024. With her record now at 2-2, Dudakova’s earlier wins over Istela Nunes and Jinh Yu Frey seem like distant memories.
Meanwhile, Fatima Kline celebrated her first UFC victory. The late replacement fighter rebounded from a decision loss to Jasmine Jasudavicius and now holds an impressive 7-1 professional record.
What’s Next?
The dramatic post-fight slap has sparked conversations about the pressure fighters face after consecutive losses and the role coaches play in their corner. Whether Dudakova will address the incident with her team or make changes remains uncertain.
Despite the post-fight incident, Dudakova has shown potential in the strawweight division. Fans are eager to see how she rebounds from this chapter and whether she can put her setbacks behind her in her next appearance.
