MMA is a violent combat sport that fans often enjoy for the thrilling knockouts, dramatic submissions, and brutal battles that take place in the cage. However, the sport can also produce some funny and bizarre moments. One such incident happened when a fighter became outraged at his opponent for refusing to compete for a full round, tapping out within the first second of the fight. This moment had MMA fans ROFL, calling it one of the funniest moments ever. And one fan even compared it to Jorge Masvidal’s lightning-fast KO of Ben Askren.
Indeed, it’s crazy and feels like a movie! A fighter tapping out before the fight is something fans never saw coming in their wildest dreams. But now that it happened, everyone is shocked and in disbelief. Fans are used to seeing submissions and fast knockouts, so one fan joked, “That’s what Ben was trying to do. Masvidal was just too quick.”
One fan expressed his views, saying, “This is wild!! Never seen this happen before!!”
One fan questioned his payout by writing, “Does he still get paid for that?”

Flashback: Jorge Masvidal Stuns Ben Askren with Record 5-Second KO at UFC 239
Former BMF (Baddest Motherf***) title holder Jorge Masvidal delivered one of the most spectacular knockouts in UFC history when he finished Ben Askren in just 5 seconds at UFC 239. Masvidal exploded out of his corner after the opening bell, launching a devastating flying knee that instantly rendered Askren unconscious as he crashed onto the canvas.
After the initial knockout blow, Jorge Masvidal followed up with several additional strikes before the referee intervened to stop the fight. This devastating finish is widely considered the fastest knockout in the UFC. Whether anyone will break this record remains to be seen.
