UFC boss Dana White feared Calvin Kattar was bludgeoned so badly he could have died on Fight Island

• Calvin Kattar was beaten so resoundingly earlier this month that Dana White was concerned he may die.
• "This reminds me of the kind of fight where the fight's over he … f------ dies," White said in a new video.
• The UFC boss ordered Kattar to go to a hospital shortly after he lost to Max Holloway on Fight Island.

FIGHT ISLAND - UFC President Dana White feared Calvin Kattar was bludgeoned so badly he could have died shortly after losing to Max Holloway on January 16 in Abu Dhabi.

"This reminds me of the kind of fight where the fight's over, and he walks in back and f------ dies," White said during a UFC promo video on YouTube called "UFC's Grand New Stage."

Holloway and Kattar's featherweight match headlined the first of three Fight Island events this month, and though it pitted the No.1-ranked fighter in the division against the No.6, it turned into a one-sided beatdown.

Kattar showed tremendous toughness by never going down during Holloway's onslaught, but the Hawaiian athlete - a former featherweight champion - broke the UFC's record for most strikes thrown and landed in a single fight.

Holloway landed 447 of his 746 strike attempts for a 59% accuracy rate during the 25-minute battle, leaving Kattar bruised, bloody, and considerably damaged.

White ordered Kattar to go to a hospital straight away - where he was given staples in his head and treated for a broken nose.

The fighter was then given a medical suspension for six months, although that can be reduced if certain conditions are met.

The new UFC video shows how concerned White was during the bout. "When this fight's over, no stopping, no talking. Get this kid in an ambulance and get him the f--- out of here immediately. I want him out of here.

"Don't talk to anybody and go right to the f------ hospital," he said.

White added: "I think that f------ [referee] Herb Dean should've stopped it in the fourth round. He was wobbling all over the f------ place. He should have stopped the fight right there."
