‘I wouldn’t survive that kick’ SAVAGE MMA knockout goes viral
- 6 years ago
MMA star Samuel Ilnicki volleyed his way into contention for the knockout of the weekend after this savage head-kick went viral online.
The clip begins showing the Polish brawler taking on English rival Solomon Rogers in a welterweight contest at Golden Ticket Fight Promotions: Fight Night 7 in Wolverhampton.
He charges across the cage, faking with a big overhand right that forces Rogers to take evasive action, ducking underneath the anticipated strike.
But Ilnicki shows impressive fight IQ, using the feigned punch to disguise a brutal head-kic
It lands with devastating accuracy, slamming shin into chin to knock Rogers out on the spot.
He momentarily freezes as his body goes rigid, before toppling face-first into the canvas to hand Ilnicki a memorable debut win.
Thousands have seen the clip since it was posted on Twitter – and viewers could not believe their eyes.
“I've watched this about 20 times and it's a thing of beauty, albeit in the most brutal way,” read one comment.
“The slight feint to set up the high kick is brilliant.”
Another added: “I love me some good KO’s but that one was real tough to watch.”
“I would not have survived that,” a third chipped in.
Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping was also knocked out in emphatic style during his second fight in just three weeks this weekend.
The 38-year-old took on Kelvin Gastelum with defeat against Georges St-Pierre still fresh in the memory – and was forced to pay the price.
