Joaquin Buckley has Knockout of the Year in the bag after stopping Impa Kasanganay during UFC Fight Island 5.
Buckley controlled the pace from the opening bell during Saturday’s fight, landing damaging body kicks on Kasanganay in the second round. This prompted Kasanganay to counter a head kick by catching a hold on Buckley’s heel. Unfortunately for Kasanganay, this provided Buckley enough leverage to jump off one foot and hit him with a spinning back kick to the head.
It was clear before Kasanganay hit the mat that the impact of the kick had knocked him out. The creativity and sheer force of this knockout set the internet ablaze as MMA fans flooded the timeline with their reactions.
With this knockout, Buckley has put himself of the UFC’s radar improving to 1-1 for his time in the league.
