Rodolfo Bellato Denies Faking Knockout Against Paul Craig at UFC Atlanta
Briefly

Rodolfo Bellato's fight against Paul Craig ended in controversy after Bellato was struck by an illegal upkick. Initially protesting the kick, Bellato lost consciousness, leading to a no contest ruling. Following the incident, fans questioned his reactions, accusing him of faking. In his defense, Bellato detailed his experience, explaining that he felt his body tingle and vision fade after the illegal strike. He asserted his credibility, citing his commitment to the sport and successful weight management leading up to the fight.
God knows about all things! To everyone cheering for me, I'm in good health and will be back soon, thank you so much! And I saw some things on the internet, saying I was an actor there and stuff. The moment I was on the ground, I didn't expect to get kicked in the face (illegally). It was a strong kick, when I looked at the judge to complain, my whole body began to tingle and my vision disappeared. After that I don't remember anything.
Anyone who's known me the longest knows I would NEVER do this. I've never run from war. I hit [weight twice] in less than 30 days, [two] trips in a row. Why would I fake something after all I been through and on top of that winning the fight?
