Watch: Undefeated MMA Juggernaut Scores Stunning Knockout in Record-Breaking Time
This might be the knockout of the year.
It will certainly be among the fastest, as Movlid “Killer” Khaybulaev took out opponent Damon Jackson just 10 seconds into their Professional Fighters League bout Thursday.
It was indeed the fastest knockout in the history of PFL, MMA Junkie reported.
Khaybulaev, 28, from Russia, hit Jackson, 30, with a flying knee that immediately put him down and out.

The win improved the undefeated featherweight to 14-0.
The bout was part of the PFL tournament at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York.
This was the PFL’s Week 2. Khaybulaev ranks first in the league’s featherweight division standings.
That’s one of the cleanest flying-knee KOs I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot). Movlid Khaybulaev is a beast. #PFL2

This wasn’t the only quick fight of the night.
Luis Rafael Laurentino of Brazil took out Canada’s Jeremy Kennedy just 23 seconds into the first round.
Laurentino nailed Kennedy with a head kick followed by a series of punches when he was down on the canvas.

It was a TKO.
Laurentino, who is 33-1, is also a featherweight, so it’s likely that he and Khaybulaev will meet down the road in the PFL tournament.
