Quillan Salkilld Targets Ranked Test After Viral UFC 321 KO, Says He Broke His Foot

Overview

• At UFC 321 in Abu Dhabi, Salkilld knocked out Nasrat Haqparast with a first-round head kick that went viral, and Haqparast was unconscious for several minutes.
• Salkilld says the kick fractured his foot and he is wearing a protective boot, and he does not expect to need surgery.
• He is targeting the UFC's rumored early-February return to Sydney and has publicly named Renato "Moicano" Carneiro as the opponent he wants.
• The callout follows just three UFC appearances, drawing questions about whether a jump to a ranked veteran is premature.
• Salkilld is 10-1 with two Performance of the Night bonuses, and Haqparast later told fans he was in good spirits after the knockout.
