Watch: Fighter Sets BKFC Record With Insane 2-Second Knockout
Promotional history was made at BKFC 69.
One-Punch KO For BKFC's Justin Watson
Kicking off the main card in Atlanta, Georgia, Tennessee's Justin Watson would turn in the performance of a lifetime, wasting literally no time after the bell sounded. Toeing the line, Watson went guns-a-blazing, knocking his opponent Cole Ferrell down with the very first punch he threw - an overhand right behind the ear.
To the emphatic roar of the crowd, Ferrell fell face-first into the canvas and that's all it took for the referee to wave off the contest with the cutthroat Watson walking away more than just a victor.
