UFC middleweight fighter Tresean Gore shocked fans by showing a lighthearted attitude after losing several lower teeth during his victory at UFC 330 in Philadelphia. Gore defeated veteran opponent Vicente Luque by a competitive unanimous decision, with the judges scoring the bout 30-27, 30-27, and 29-28 in his favor.

The most memorable moment occurred during the post-fight interview inside the cage at the Xfinity Mobile Arena. Commentator Joe Rogan noticed blood and a severe gap in the fighter's mouth and asked him about the injury. Gore pulled down his bottom lip to reveal that a flying knee from Luque in the final seconds of the match had completely knocked out his lower front teeth.

Despite the gruesome look of the injury, which caused audible groans from the crowd, Gore remained completely unfazed. He stated that he did not care about the damage because it could easily be fixed by a dentist. He added that while he might be speaking with a noticeable lisp right now, he was ultimately going home with two fight checks.

The television broadcast then cut to a shot of Gore's corner team, who were actually holding the detached teeth in their hands. Fans cheered as Gore proudly declared that he would simply use one of his new prize checks to pay for his dental work.
