Takaya Suzuki should be an enormous fan of Jorge Masvidal.
The Japanese flyweight did his greatest “Gamebred” impression Saturday at a Shooto occasion in Tokyo, needing simply 4 seconds to land a flying knee that left opponent Yuichi Miyagi out chilly.
Watch the unbelievable knockout under.
Within the clip, a tentative Miyagi seems to open the struggle by suggesting a contact of gloves, solely to finish up being blasted by the speedy Suzuki. Afterwards, Miyagi needed to be taken out of the cage on a stretcher.
Impressively, Suzuki truly did Masvidal one higher. His flying knee knockout was formally one second sooner than Masvidal’s well-known five-second KO of Ben Askren at UFC 239 in July 2019.
That is the third straight first-round knockout for the 19-year-old Suzuki, who has received 5 straight fights since dropping his professional debut.
Miyagi, a 17-year veteran, fell to 20-14-1 with the loss. This marked simply the 4th lack of his profession by KO/TKO.
