Jorge Masvidal’s five-second flying knee KO of Ben Askren at UFC 239 in July sent shockwaves to the MMA community. It was a historical night of sorts, as it marked Askren’s first career loss, and the fastest knockout in the UFC.
“Gamebred” threw the knee at “Funky” as soon as the fight commenced. On Satuday’s “BMF” title fight against Nate Diaz at UFC 244, Masvidal attempted the shot once again, but ended up faking. Seeing it a half a step ahead, Diaz hopped back.
Seeing this moment unfold, Askren had some words to say, basing it on his own experience.
