Over the years in MMA, we have seen an assortment of different knockouts, but this latest one might just take the cake.
An MMA fighter knocked his opponent out with an unorthodox punch to the throat during Tuesday’s Alash Pride 74 event in Turkestan, Kazakhstan.
Ibrahim Aslan Sezer could be seen suddenly stopping in the middle of the fight to grab his throat but would soon get met with another punch to the face.
Since the punch to the throat was accidental, the first-round knockout victory advanced his pro MMA record to 19 wins against 11 losses.
Zhaparov won by corner stoppage and technical knockout in the third round.
