Flying knee results in brutal UFC knockout
Anyone who has copped a stray knee to any part of their body will have some idea how UFC fighter Ilir Latifi felt after this.
American Ryan Bader delivered a brutal and perfectly-timed knee to the head of Latifi during their bout in Germany over the weekend.
Two minutes into the second round, Bader launched himself at the stooped Swede to complete the spectacular knockout.
“This was something new – I haven’t had a kick or a knee knockout,” Bader said after the fight.
There was immediate concern for Latifi’s health with the Swede receiving medical attention.
The commentator was spot on when he said, ‘’What a finish from Ryan Bader, it has stunned the crowd here in Germany’’.
The crowd weren’t the only ones stunned. Latifi was too and he will now head back to the drawing board hoping to prevent a repeat of his day to forget.
