DAMN.
Even if you’re only a casual UFC fan, you’ve inevitably seen some pretty crazy knockouts. It just comes with the territory.
But tonight’s bout between Joaquin Buckley and Impa Kasanganay just produced perhaps the greatest knockout the league has ever seen. In the second round of the fight, Buckley’s kick was caught by Kasanganay, put a quick pivot and Buckley was able to land a brutal spinning back kick right to the chops.
In less than a second, Kasanganay’s night was over.
Even UFC President Dana White had to ask the question: Is this the greatest KO in UFC history?
Is this the greatest KO in @ufc history?
