I’ve seen plenty of knockouts take place in boxing, MMA and kickboxing fights before, but few were as devastating as this knockout from a Muay Thai bout. It appears as though it was the right hook than knocked out the losing fighter. As for the subsequent roundhouse kick to the face, that appeared to knock him into another universe.

It is time like this that all of those extra minutes spent stretching really pay off. Unfortunately for the sexy blond who has been doing all of that stretching, she doesn’t even benefit the most from the impressive height on her roundhouse kick. Instead, that privilege belongs to us, the viewer, who just so happen to be positioned at the perfect angle.

When you mention the name Anderson Silva, most people immediately think of the UFC’s Middleweight Champion. However, the other Anderson Silva that is currently fighting in the European kickboxing circuit appears to be making a name for himself thanks to this devastating roundhouse kick to the head that knocked out Freddy Kemayo in the first round of their bout at “Fightclub Presents: It’s Showtime 2010.”

The kick occurred 1:15 into the fight, knocking Kemayo out cold on his feet and cutting him open on the side of his head. We will not go so far as to say that Kemayo’s brain was leaking from his head, but hearing that was the case certainly wouldn’t surprise us. And after taking a look at the following clip, you will probably feel the same way.

Chris Tuchscherer Eats Gabriel Gonzaga’s Leg Kick

Total Pro Sports – Perhaps the only thing flashier than a vicious overhand right or a spinning backfist knockout is a devastating kick to the head. They are tough strikes to land, but when they connect they can end a fight in seconds.

Need proof? Look no further than UFC 102′s fight between Gabriel Gonzaga and Chris Tuchscherer.

At 2:27 of the first round, came at Tuchscherer and hit him square in the face with a devastating left roundhouse kick. That knocked Tuchscherer tot he ground and Gonzaga ended the fight with a few more punched to the face. Surprisingly, that was not even good enough to win him knockout of the night, as that award went to Nate Marquardt, who defeated Demian Maia.

It is not often we see such a big man with such a high and hard kick. Tuchscherer likely was thinking the same thing, but this time it cost him the fight, and possibily some teeth and brain cells as well.
