VIDEO: He tried to be like Masvidal, but found himself in the skin of Akren! The Brazilian fighter missed his knee and got himself a crushing knockout. Four seconds and the fight was over

The Brazilian Acesso MMA organization held only its third event on November 11, but the management can wash its hands. The knockout, the footage of which has taken the mixed martial arts world by storm, is to blame. It was taken care of by fighters who may have made their professional debut, but are now the talk of the world.

He played Masvidal but found himself in Ben Askren’s shoes

A professional debut that neither participant will ever forget. While one of them wanted to play on Jorge Masvidal, but after the impact, he felt more in Ben Askren’s shoes. Regular MMA fans understand, for the rest of us let’s explain.

The Brazilian organization Acesso MMA has only been in the mixed martial arts market for a short time. On Nov. 11, in the Brazilian city of Fortaleza, it held only its third MMA gala. But today, it is the talk of the world’s media.

The reason for this can be attributed to the two men who stepped up in the light heavyweight division on the main card of the aforementioned event. Xiki Loko and Iury Silva were competing in amateur competitions until that night, so the Acesso MMA 3 gala was the first event where they fought as professional MMA fighters.

And they made their presence known right away, even though their fight lasted only four seconds. After all, Silva probably found a liking in Jorge Masvidal, who sent Ben Askren unconscious in five seconds with a jumping knee at UFC 239 in Las Vegas in 2019.

The aforementioned finish went down in the organization as the fastest knockout in UFC history, which to this day has not been surpassed. So it’s no wonder that many fighters around the world are inspired by it. Unfortunately, it doesn’t always work out, just like it did for Brazilian Silva.

Iury Silva missed his knee and got a crushing knockout

The latter, following the example of his more famous idol, jumped forward with a knee, but unfortunately missed his opponent, who landed a precise blow. After the impact it was clear that the fight was over and further blows were useless. The official timekeeper showed exactly four seconds, one second less than Masvidal’s famous finish.

Xiko Loko thus recorded the fastest knockout of his career, and the history of the organization. Iury Silva, even though he lost, should get a special bonus from the owners of the organization. His failed maneuver has caused the moment to be talked about in all corners of the world today.
