At the UFC 313 gala, the most exciting fans were the clashes of Justin Gaethje with Rafael Fiziew and Alex Pereira with Magomed Ankalajew. The American won the Co-Main Event, and in the fight of the evening the Russian took the Brazilian's light heavyweight champion belt. Earlier, however, fans witnessed an incredible knockout.
Space knockout at UFC 313. Like a computer game
The main card in Las Vegas began the clash of Mauricio Ruffy (12-1-0) with experienced Bobby Green (32-17-1). The favorite of the competition was the Brazilian and in the first round he showed why. He only needed two minutes to send the opponent to the boards after an incredible action.
As we can see on the video material, after a moment of stagnation and research from both players, Ruffy pushed his rival under the net. After unsuccessful blows, he threatened his hands with a low kick, and after signaling a straight blow, he decided to make a rotary kick with his right leg.
It seemed that the Brazilian shot, and yet his leg landed on Green's head. He fell immediately, bounced off the net and fell unconscious to the ground. The referee ran up to the American without hesitation and interrupted the fight before Ruffy began to bother the ground floor. These were no longer needed to announce his victory.
The rotary kick of the Brazilian is carried on social media, and one of the materials already has over 1.7 million views. In the comments, fans suggest that his action was so good that “he looks false.” We also read about “perfect kick”, “incredible speed”, as well as “knockout of the year in March”. I must admit that he is actually an excellent candidate for this award.
