  "account": "Gable Steveson suffered his first professional MMA loss to Sean Sharaf in a shocking upset at UFC 331. Steveson, an Olympic gold medalist in wrestling, entered the bout as a 24-1 favorite and was knocked out just 12 seconds into the fight. Sharaf, who had never won a UFC bout, kept a cool head in the lead-up to the fight, treating Steveson as any other opponent rather than an untouchable being. Sharaf's plan was to close the distance and connect his big left hand, which he executed successfully. Despite the upset win, Sharaf remained humble and grateful, stating that he hadn't felt any different after the fight. He believes Steveson will only get better and sees him fighting again in the future.",
