Craziest KO in UFC History?!
This past weekend saw UFC Fight Night 139 celebrate 25 years since the birth of the Ultimate Fighting Championship. The event was packed with up and coming stars as they each did their best to leave an impression on the crowd in attendance and the millions watching around the world.
The main event saw “The Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung take on the young prospect Yair Rodriguez. The two fought a back and forth battle that saw each man showing off the brand of fighting they’ve come to be known for, The Korean Zombie and his intense forward pressure, Yair Rodriguez and his diverse kicking game and striking arsenal.
The battle eventually began to favor The Korean Zombie who appeared to be riding off with a hard fought yet dominant victory. But Yair Rodriguez showed why he should never be counted out of a fight as he threw one of the most insane strikes that has ever been attempted in UFC history.
It was perhaps one of the most insane knockouts ever produced in combat sports history much less the UFC. What did you think of the battle between The Korean Zombie and Yair Rodriguez? Where does this knockout rank in your all time list?
