This here story about the fastest knockout in the UFC. That UFC, you know, that fightin’ thing on the TV. They got these fellas, they get in a cage, and they just go at it. And sometimes, it’s over quicker than you can say “pass the biscuits.”
Fastest Knockout
I seen a lot of fights in my day. Back in my day, we didn’t have no fancy cages. We just went at it in the back of the barn. But these UFC fellas, they’re somethin’ else. And the fastest one? Well, that’s what we’re here to talk about.
Now, this one fella, Jorge Masvidal. Sounds like a fancy name, don’t it? Well, he’s a fighter, and he’s a good one. He fought this other fella, Ben Askren. Don’t know much about him, but I know he got knocked out quicker than a fly in a swatter.
Jorge Masvidal and Ben Askren
They got in that cage, and that Masvidal, he just flew across like a chicken hawk after a field mouse. Five seconds. That’s all it took. Five seconds! Faster than I can cook a pot of grits. I swear, that Askren fella didn’t know what hit him.
- Five seconds, that’s the fastest.
- Masvidal, he’s the one who did it.
- Askren, he’s the one who got knocked out.
- It was at UFC 239. I don’t know what that means, but it sounds important.
I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout some other fella, Duane Ludwig. They say he had a fast knockout too, but it weren’t as fast as Masvidal’s. Six seconds, they say. Still faster than a greased piglet at the county fair, but not as fast as five.
They say this UFC thing been around for a long time. Thirty years! Longer than I been married to my old man. And in all that time, ain’t nobody knocked nobody out faster than that Masvidal fella.
Then there’s this other fella they call “The king of knockouts”. Derrick somethin’. Derrick Lewis, I think. This fella has knocked out a whole bunch of other fighters. He’s like the grim reaper of that there octagon. Marcin Tybura, Alexander Volkov, these are just a couple of fellas who felt the wrath of Derrick’s fists. I tell ya, that Derrick, he ain’t one to mess with.
Other Fast Knockouts
I heard tell of a fight way back in ’47. Two fellas, Mike Collins and Pat Brownson. They was fightin’ in some kinda glove competition. Golden Gloves, they called it. Well, this Collins fella, he threw one punch, and that was it. Four seconds! Can you believe it? Four seconds! That’s faster than it takes to milk a cow.
But this Masvidal knockout, that’s the one they all talk about. That’s the fastest knockout in UFC history. They say it’s the greatest, most crazy knockout ever. I don’t know about all that. All I know is, it was fast. Real fast.
UFC, it’s a crazy thing. These fellas, they’re tough. But that Masvidal, he’s the toughest of them all. At least when it comes to knockin’ folks out quick. He just ran right at him and jumped up in the air with his knee, bam! All over. Five seconds, I can’t hardly believe it myself.
So there you have it. The story of the fastest knockout in the UFC. Five seconds. Jorge Masvidal. Remember that name. ‘Cause he’s the fastest there is. Or at least, that’s what they tell me. I just know what I seen on that TV. And it was somethin’ else.
I reckon there ain’t much else to say about it. It’s like watchin’ a rabbit get snatched by a hawk. It’s over before you even know what happened. I guess that’s what makes them UFC fights so excitin’. You never know when someone’s gonna get knocked out cold in the blink of an eye. Makes my old heart skip a beat just thinkin’ about it!
This UFC thing, it sure has changed since back in my day. But one thing’s for sure, folks still love a good knockout. And that Masvidal fella, he gave ’em one they’ll never forget. Five seconds! It’s just plain crazy, ain’t it?
Well, that’s all I got to say about that. Time for me to go tend to my garden. Don’t want them weeds to get the best of me. Just like that Askren fella got the best of him by that flyin’ knee. Five seconds, I’m still tellin’ ya, that’s just somethin’ else!
