Longtime MMA knockout artist Sergei Kharitonov was looking for his sixth win in his last seven fights when he faced Chase Gormley on the main card of tonight’s (Fri., March 31, 2016) Bellator 175 from the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois.

And although main event fighters Rampage Jackson and King Mo stole the pre-fight spotlight with their never-ending smack talk, it was the assassin-like precision of heavyweight Kharitonov that was by far the best performance of the card. The Russian may have been down on the scorecards with Gormley throwing and landing an accurate volume of varied strikes, but Kharitonov kept calm, landing a laser-like jab.

The combat sports legend then landed a clean straight right that rocked Gormley, and Kharitonov finished the job by stepping back with a perfect uppercut with the exact same hand that had his opponent out cold. Watch the insane KO courtesy of Bellator here:

The Truth About Losing

Brendan Schaub felt sure that people were staring at him. No matter where he went, whether he was among a crowd of strangers or trusted friends, he could feel their eyes on him.

“I felt like I’d walk into the mall or a room somewhere, even the training room, and people would be like, there’s the guy who got knocked out,” Schaub said. “I just felt so embarrassed.”

That embarrassment stemmed from his first, and so far only defeat – a knockout loss to Roy Nelson at the “Ultimate Fighter” 10 finale last December. Afterwards, when he went back home, Schaub spent the next two weeks convinced that there wasn’t a soul in the world who hadn’t seen him get floored on live TV.
