Edmen Shahbazyan dazzled the MMA world with a stunning head kick knock out of Brad Tavares at UFC 244. That’s the same fighter that current middleweight champion Israel Adesanya took five full rounds to beat. At the time Shahbazyan was 21 years old (since turned 22). He is already on the radar of the UFC elite and is managed by none other than Ronda Rousey.
Yet many fans, are not fully aware of this. That head kick knockout should have been a crowning moment for the young martial artist.
