Professional Fighters League star Archie Colgan suffered a horrific knockout loss to Usman Nurmagomedov last weekend.

PFL lightweight champion Usman Nurmagomedov continued his unbeaten reign as he knocked out the previously undefeated Archie Colgan at PFL New York last Saturday. Usman, the cousin of UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov, will now test free agency and potentially receive an offer from Dana White and the UFC matchmakers.

Nurmagomedov caught Colgan with a nasty head kick, followed by brutal ground-and-pound, to hand Colgan his first career defeat. Luckily, Colgan was able to leave the cage under his own power with UFC lightweight champion Justin Gaethje at his side.

After a scary sight to wrap up an eventful night at PFL New York, Colgan shared an encouraging update on his health following the loss to Nurmagomedov.

In a recent Instagram post, Colgan broke his social media silence after PFL New York.

“Damn… In a match of perfection I made a mistake and paid the maximum price in front of the world. Man it’s frustrating.. but that’s the game I play. Haven’t felt this in a while but I am no stranger to it. Congratulations Usman and his team all world-class men and fighters,” Colgan said.

“Dr. said NO concussion but I will rest up. Thank you to my team for all we’ve built leading to this. Thank you to my fans and supporters for your love. The journey continues.”

Colgan won his first 13 professional fights before his loss to Nurmagomedov last weekend. The former NCAA Division I wrestling standout earned wins over the likes of Mansour Barnaoui, Jay-Jay Wilson, and Manoel Sousa in his PFL/Bellator tenure.
