Halloween vibes ran rampant Saturday through the Meta APEX in more ways than one.

Theodor Berggren sported a nasty gash that caused an end to his UFC Fight Night 292 bout vs. Rodrigo Sezinando – and no, it wasn't a costume.

A brutal slicing elbow from Sezinando (9-2 MMA, 1-1 UFC) in Round 2 caused the fight to be stopped between rounds after a doctor's evaluation. Berggren (8-5 MMA, 0-2 UFC) looked like Robbie Lawler did during their UFC 189 bout in 2015.

Brazil's Sezinando had won the first two rounds on the judges' scorecards, mixing together powerful striking with technical grappling. He nearly finished Berggren at the end of Round 1, but the horn sounded. The win marks his first in the UFC. Sezinando was "The Ultimate Fighter 33" welterweight runner up, losing the final to Daniil Donchencko.

Sweden's Berggren also suffered a second-round TKO loss to Donchenko in his UFC debut. That loss snapped a two-fight winning streak.
