Ray J got knocked out during a celebrity MMA match on Saturday.

The KO came amid his claim that he only has months to live.

The One Wish singer faced YouTuber Supa Hot Fire at the UFC Apex event in Las Vegas. The fight ended quickly in the second round when Supa Hot Fire delivered a knockout blow.

After the punch, Ray J fell against the ropes and onto the ground. Although he was able to get back up, he had to sit down again on a stool, which is when the referee ended the match.

When interviewed post-fight, Ray J suggested the match was supposed to be rigged, but Supa Hot Fire disagreed.

"Damn bro... like that? For real, that's janky as f**k," he told his opponent. "I don't want to say too much because I don't want to get nobody in trouble, but damn... we took an L tonight."

In January, the Sexy Can I singer alarmed his fans when he claimed he didn't have much longer to live.

"2027 is definitely a wrap for me," he said in a video clip shared to social media. "That's what they say. I shouldn't have went this hard, bro."

Later that month, Ray J told TMZ that doctors had advised he remain on bed rest, taking medications for a high risk of heart failure.

He also said he was considering travelling to Haiti for treatment.
