Matthew Semelsberger takes out opponent with 1 punch for 7th-fastest KO in UFC history

UFC Vegas 21 is off to a fast start. Literally.

Saturday's event headlined by Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad opened with one of the shortest fights in UFC history, between Matt Semelsberger and Jason Witt. The bout was called after 16 seconds, in which Semelsberger landed a single counterpunch that sent Witt backward like he was doing a trust fall.

It was one of those magical little fights that can be tweeted out in their entirety:
