Video: This One-Punch Walk-Off Slow-Motion Falling-Tree Street-Fight Easy-Listening Knockout Is FAAAAABULOUS!!

(Props: MiddleEasy)

Yeah, that’s a lot of adjectives for a fight that lasts two seconds. But hey, watch the video yourself and see if we’re lying to you. A guy gets dummied up with a single punch then remains on his feet for an impressive length of time before going full sequoia, after which the non-combatant in the striped t-shirt falls out like he’s judging a drag show. The instant replay is soundtracked by Enya. If you don’t enjoy this sort of thing, fighting’s just not in your DNA, honey.

MMA Video Tribute: 12 Jaw-Dropping First-Punch Knockouts

(Steve Ramirez vs. Darvin Wattree @ Pure Combat IX. This is how you do it, folks.)

To turn somebody’s lights out with one shot is a thing of beauty — but to do it with the very first strike you land? That puts you on a whole ‘nother level of awesomeness. Our favorite first-punch MMA knockouts continue after the jump. Condolences to those brave, unfortunate souls who went through eight-week training camps just to get assed-out in less than 10 seconds.

(First-punch knockout, cheap-shot-style. The YouTube description tells us that these guys are cousins. Now that’s country.)

(Chris Clements vs. Lautaro Tucas @ TKO 25. Let’s just say that Tucas’s gameplan wasn’t hand-crafted by Greg Jackson.)


(You ain’t shit, Tim!” Never gets old, does it?)


(Nate Marquardt permanently knocks the jiu-jitsu out of Demian Maia at UFC 102.)


(Not sure who these guys are, but I have a feeling that one of them trains with Lautaro Tucas.)
